This ones a bit of a ramble through the day and also a look at whats coming next on the channel. (also my lights stopped working so i apologise for the weird lighting in the video).

    I'm really into the Napoleonic wars and could tell you which battle is depicted in all the famous paintings! From someone also in the UK (I'm down in the south but way west of London) how would I go about getting into something like this and finding people to play with that aren't pushing retirement!? (The photos on the websites of the local gaming clubs show everyone looking 50+) I've never done any wargaming so not looking for really complex stuff that drags on for a whole weekend, just something you could play over an afternoon.

      @7thson726 5 днів тому

      Thats great that your looking into it. As you have alrady pointed out clubs are a good start though i appreciate what your saying. Another way is going into some of the Napoleonic Gaming FB groups and looking for players. Groups such as Black Powder 28mm Wargaming, Warlord Black Powder Napoleonics, Napoleonic Wargamer all come to mind. Also, the group we run through our podcast has alot of players for all sorts of games all across the country. Just search The Plastic Crack Podcast on FB, answer the three questions to join and once approved post away. I hope this helps

    @garrywillswargamerauthor 8 днів тому

    Great video, well done to you both for giving us such great entertainment. It was great to see these rules be demonstrated. The cards seemed to make the game very clunky and sprinkled Napoleonic 'flavour' in a pretty random way unconnected to what was going on in the game itself. The cavalry behaved in a very un-cavalry way and were clearly unable to force the infantry into square. Having got on the flank of the Hanoverian Landwehr the Chasseurs a Cheval should have been able to sweep the brigade away. However you both clearly enjoyed it and you have saved me from buying it. Thanks again.

      So he took 5 dice from the Hastati, 2 from the Principe and 2 from the Triarii (though this should have been 3). There are no other units in base to base as far as I can see for them to use. If there was then he had room for one more support, you only ever get a max of 3 supporting units. If I've looked at the wrong but just give me the time in the video and I'll check again 😁
