Thoughts on WSS Rules for 6mm

Ok, I am finally finishing my WSS project I started in 2004 and last touched in 2005.  I am basing 60mm x 30mm per Polemos and will end up with Anglo-Dutch and French armies, each roughly with: 18 bases of foot, 12 bases of Horse or Dragoons, and 4 field guns.

I am currentky planning on playing Black Powder at reduced scale (I have done this sucessfully with Napoleonics) on a 4" x 3" table.

What other rules would you folks suggest? My only constraints are my army sizes and table zie as stipulated above.

I am considering looking at Horse, Foot, and Guns and the new Polemos.  Opinions?

I'm looking at Ga Pa and Ridiculous Vanity 2.  I always did like the look of RV.  What I read about Ga Pa is more interesting to me than Ga Pa itself.  I have a hard time reading through the rules as it seems to go back and forth from overview to minutiae without much sense of order.  The problem may just be me though as I am kind of tuckered out lately.

Polemos suits your basing format. BP are immensely playable and fun, but lack the period specific element that Chris's set provides.  

The second edition play very smoothly and give you the options of two levels of play.


I have plans.   I am dangerous when I have plans...
