Can anyone list which historical battles are covered in the current BB version? I still have V1 and was thinking of updating. Regards Alan

Just about evey major engagement of the period. Why not start at the beginning and relight the whole thing?
Actually, that's a good idea...!

Thanks for the quick response.  PDF ordered.  Regards Alan

I hope you enjoy it, Alan.

The rules are in my opinion "simple but not simplistic", with a lot of tactical points to consider. And most importantly, they're a lot of fun to play!

The battles have each been fought 5 or more times to make sure they work appropriately.
We enjoyed playing them as both players had victory criteria that can be achieved.

Does that include killing Richard III? I was good at that!

I have to celebrate these rare successes. There are so few of them! Are we having a Bloody Barons day this year?

[Colonel Kilgore]

Do tell us again, Sean - how many times was it that you killed Richard III at the SOA day..?
