TOPIC: India Late 18th Early 19th Centuries |
Standard User Posts: 87 I am a spambot 4th Dec 2023 06:40:53 I am considering writing an "Arthur Wellesley in India" supplement for the WTF rules, and am looking for suggestions for some of the armies. Presumably I could use my British Peninsular War army for King's troops? Does anyone have suggestions for Honourable East India Company sepoys and cavalry? Any suggestions about good matches for their enemies? Thanks in advance. |
Are the rules really called WTF? A little goes a long way |
Standard User Posts: 87 I am a spambot 4th Dec 2023 11:21:49 Yes, the full name is "Warfare's Tremendous Feats". Someone on the old Fanaticus suggested it as a name for another set of rules some other people were developing. The authors of those rules didn't accept the suggestion, but the gentleman who suggested the name said he didn't mind me using it for my rules. |
It will certainly get them noticed if you go public with them. Wishing you success in your endeavours. A little goes a long way |
Standard User Posts: 87 I am a spambot 5th Dec 2023 04:04:49 Thanks. There is a groups.io group :- WTFwargamerules@groups.io | Home Basically, standard games are a little bigger than DBA, with a basic core and several supplements with the nitty-gritty for each period. Some periods work well with the standard game, but some (such a the Napoleonic Wars) benefit from double-sized games. Each army has centralised attrition points, and when they are gone, so is the army. |
