To complete I would mention Peter Pig scenery from the "pirates" and Mexican ranges, and last but not least, the funny Atlantic planes and landing crafts which are plastic toys from the 70'.
(planes painted by friend Jean-Luc Chaulet)

Atlantic, my first love.... 

Hello everybody, I've already asked on Square bashing forum about the possibility to use that rules for Balkan wars.
Cause I'd like to reproduce fight amongst platoons/squad I was suggested that I could use Bayonet and Ideology (adjusting army lists) too for balkan wars and Martin was so nice to give me some clarifications about it. Meanwhile I bought and read square bashing rules.
Now I would like to ask to fighting for Mexico experts if they think that set of rules, covering a conflict fought in the same years of Balkan Wars, may be also good for my purpose.
Thank you very much
Daniele

That was all part of Martin's cunning plan to sell more mounted troops, knowing you'd also need foot equivalents. Plus the extra platoon. A triple whammy.

Simon

Mounted troops are never too much  

Quote from: John Watson on March 06, 2024, 12:23:09 PMI'm with Sean. I think Bayonets and Ideology (PP SCW rules) would be best. Probably remove the LMGs from the basic unit and add a rifleman. Remove the armoured trucks. Devise your own army lists.
John

Is there cavalry in Bayonets and ideology? In balkan wars cavalry may be important.

Thank you Martin for answer. I don't want a skirmish game where figures acts independently, I simply want a game in wich the army is a company and not a division and units are platoons or squads and not battallions.
I think it may be good. No problem with opponents, I tend to develop my projects autonomously and then invite friends to play.
In the only local club we have in my town, in this moment, the only game played is ASOIAF and generally speacking the members are 28mm.'s strong supporters while I prefer minitures from 15 to 6mm.

Hello, a questione for Square Bashing experts.
I read on the page with the info that the game is a divisional battle level one.
I would like to play Balkan wars with a company/platoons game level, may Square Bashing be good with some change or better to search for other rules?
Many thanks
Daniele

Sorry for late....Happy New Year and I wish you all a lot of free time to paint Peter Pig miniatures.....

Italian WW2 cavalry made the last cavalry charge (victorious) of history, so they deserve a couple of packs...

How many casualties do you need per size? 10? 20?

Hello everybody, it's Daniele from Italy. I have FOW based armies, I would like to know if is it possible to use them for playing PBI.
Thank you very much.

Quote from: martin goddard on October 09, 2023, 07:40:50 AMI am sure it would be  very interesting.
However, it is only me here.
Next 6 months are probably  devoted to ancients, WW2,AK,  ACW and ECW.
I get about 4 packs per month sculpted.
These calculations create a limit.
My major problem is what not to do rather than what to do.

None the less , new ideas are always welcome. I would not discourage new ideas.

Hello Martin, last year you did the wonderful Carolingian range. What do you suggest for Welsh, Irish, Scottish? Are saxons good to proxy or do you think to develop these ranges too in the future?

Quote from: John Watson on September 29, 2023, 10:59:00 PMBottom line is not how pretty it looks, and it does look pretty, but will it sell. How many potential PP customers have even heard of this conflict, let alone have any interest in it. I'm sorry to sound so negative because I want to spread the word about all forms of wargaming, but I also appreciate that for Martin it is more than just a hobby.
John

I'm not so sure this range wouldn't be  succesfull. Romantic period, great variety of troops with amazing look and it's not available by any other source.

Thank you very much everybody. Just another question. If the officer fails to score a 3+  is it the turn for the active player to finish, or simply the possibility to carry out actions for that officer?

May be I lost something while reading the rules, but I just didn't understand how many dices can an officer throw in order to have a 3,4,5,6 to carry out an action.
Thank you very much.

A bunch of spanish Governor's troops.
