For the past 7 years or so, my staple diet has been my own "Bloody Big BATTLES!" rules (BBB) for nineteenth-century wargames. These mean my C19 Baccus figures get plenty of action!

As it's now two years since the publication of BBB, I have collected links to all the reviews I'm aware of and put them in a single post on the BBB Blog:

http://bloodybigbattles.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/collected-reviews-of-bbb-bloody-big.html

Baccus armies can be seen in many of the games in my Flickr albums:

I hope this is useful to Baccus forum members.

For 6mm ACW, I'm using mostly Altar of Freedom but I just bought Volley & Bayonet to give them a try.

At the moment for my massed fantasy campaign I have GW LOTR/Hobbit rulesets and companion books left over from when I did 28mm fantasy. The stats for a single orc/man figure I will use to represent the stats for a whole base of Orcs/men etc. My question is. Has anyone used the Kings of War ruleset and their thoughts on it. Should I try them or stick with what I've got which has stats for a lot of different troop types.

I thank you

Nigel


Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star.
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names but always me.
So forever in the future Shall I battle as of yore, Dying to be born a fighter But to die again once more.

My previous AWI project saw service with Guns of Liberty and Field of Battle, as well as Patriots! from The Perfect Captain.  The new AWI project will be based for RdG, but may also be used for Field of Battle.

I have Romans and Carthaginians for Warmaster Ancient Battles.

We often use a base of 6mm figures to replace a single 28mm figure using rulesets such as SAGA, Lion Rampant, Dragon Rampant, Pikemans Lament, etc.

With 3-20 men / base your skirmish "band" goes from a very light 20-30 men to a more sensible 150 or so!
