Writing a Wargame

Hello Ascarin:

I commend you on attempting to create your own set of rules. I do have a set of rules you could use that was developped by Glenn Pearce , our wargame group members and myself, with more recent modifications you could use to help in formulating your own rules. They are somewhat detailed in nature but not complicated once you get used to the formulas etc. As an added bonus there is a section at the back of the rules which broadly covers all the nations that took part in the Napoleonic Wars with details on troops, and numbers -per unit as well as adaptations for the Rules. If interested, give me your email and I would be happy to send you the Rules and latest revisions.

Hello Jean,

That's fantastic thank you! Apologies for not replying sooner I had only just checked the forum.

I have hit a bit of a block at the moment in writing the faction/unit specific rules so I'd very much appreciate any help you can give or references I can use.

My email address is: clausewitz.tabletop@gmail.com

Many thanks

Peter

So I've finally written all the rules into an Alpha phase rule book.

If you feel so inclined, I'd appreciate anyone who would take their time to read through them or download the Word Document from the linked article below. I'm looking for feedback on everything from spelling, wording and location of paragraphs to feedback on rules etc. No opinion is a bad opinion and please be as thorough as you can! All people who provide feedback will be mentioned in the rulebook upon its release as a thank you. The word document on the website has track changes on so please feel free to make as many changes as you like and send the document to clausewitz.tabletop@gmail.com

The rules have been adjusted and all articles on the nations will be revisited to update the rules for the individual units.

Again, thank you to everyone who has helped me get this far with the rules but especially to Chris Pringle and Lehann who gave many a thoughtful idea or suggestion on the way!
