I guess one thing that I definitely did not account for during the "Army Building Process" is what happens if rules or mechanics inspire you. It makes the entire system circular. lol I am right there with you when it comes to highly specific rulesets being making it challenging to tell the story you want. Particularly if it is an otherwise fun and engaging system. I think that was really my only problem with the game Bushido. All of their factions and rules were so specific to their world when I really just wanted to use their system for a more quasi-historical samurai game.

The Frostgrave family of games is fantastic. I just bought Silver Bayonet and it has its own Rangers of Shadowdeep style solo campaign built in. How do you like Oathmark? I haven’t given it a chance yet.

@@MrLigonater I just recently ordered the books and two supplements. I plan to blend Oathmark with smaller forces into my ROSD campaign.

the game I use that for is Drums and Shakos: large battles. It's the same system as song of blades and heroes for Napoleonic warfare at division or corps level. I use 2mm miniatures from Irregular miniatures, though the rules support any scale.

@@MrLigonater Thank you!!!!!

That's advanced song of blade and Heroes

If you are doing only 1 war band per player (which is how it us meant to be played) I do not recommend going beyond 500 points. (300 points usually ends up being 7-12 models, but could be 15 or more for horde type armies) The author tested the game with 1000 points and he said it worked, it simply wasn't ideal. If you want to use this game with larger armies I recommend each player building 2-3 300-500 point warbands, using the normal rules. The player that goes first will activate within their first warband until they loose the initiative or complete their turn, and play will flip between the two players (or two sides) until each warband has had a chance to activate their all of their warbands. Then the turn ends. This is based on the mechanic used in Drums and Shakos: Large Battles, to activate brigades within a division. (another ruleset published by this same company)

I have been lax. I plan to do a video for Flying Lead in the near future. Then I am going to do a small batrep for a game I did a while ago with my 3mm miniatures.

Will do, I've been putting them off because I wanted a suitable vehicle to display for that game. As of an hour or two ago I own some halftracks, so I plan to make a video for Flying Lead in the next few weeks.

Stu Hobley Thank you. It's uncreatively named "Wargame Rules 1950-2000" it's hard to find, unfortunately, but there are a few copies on eBay every now and then. I really like it. I originally did a little review of it in this video, but I had to cut it for length. If that doesn't cover the time period you want they also made "Wargame Rules: Armour and Infantry 1925-1950."

Andrew Ligon Thanks for the reply. We play an earlier edition at our club as our rules of choice for moderns. I prefer playing the older sets of rules over newer sets like Team Yankee. There's something about them that ticks my gaming boxes. Thanks again for the video and reply.
