Outstanding production. Terrain setting the high bar and worth looking at, superb sound mixing and simply well edited and constructed all round. Yours is the standard to which everyone else should be aspiring to meet. Looking forward very much to part 2.

Praise indeed and warmly appreciated Gee. I try and create content that I myself would enjoy watching. It takes time but I am so glad that viewers recognize that and are prepared to comment. Thank you!

Superb, one of the best KZfaqs I have seen this year. Love the combo of bigger figures with the 'modest' table, thanks so much for doing this and looking forward to part 2,

Wow! That was a really impressive production. I enjoyed your use of photographs and overlays of the battlefield. The table and figures are awesome too. I’m sharing it to Historical Wargames Directory on Facebook so you’ll hopefully pick up more subscribers.

Brilliant video, stunning models and scenery. And seeing 28mm Napoleonics on a table this size is really inspiring. Sold on these rules already.

Really like that terrain. Love that multi-part building.

@leagueofaugsburg9036 3 жыл бұрын

It's a customized job to match the groundscale of the battalions. Most model buildings are built in normal proportions to look right but end up taking up far too much groundspace relative to groundscale.

an internet search on 'March of eagles victrix' takes you to a download page for the free rules, which oddly, I can't seem to reach from the victrix website. Anyway, scroll down and there is a revised version there. Thanks.

Looks interesting as I can’t get to shows anymore I have to make do with video’s. A commentary , without the unrelated background noise of a large show suits me as I’m partially deaf so certain voices are inaudible as I can’t hear sound at either end of the spectrum or anyone speaking very fast, usually on tv. However I could hear the sound perfectly well.. IIRC The League of Augsburg have a set of detailed rules from a number of years ago but I’ve never seen a game played with them.
