looking for 3 players

Post by fogman »

to participate in "lords of history 6", based on the tried and true lords series rules,
viewtopic.php?f=95&t=47278

lords of history 6 will focus on the thirty years war from 1631-1634, using the 'sweden's high noon' trilogy (the 3 scenarios, 4 players variant format will be used as it was in lords of history 3). there are contingencies if more players are interested. this is the raison d'etre of my scenarios and hopefully it will encourage further developments.

('sweden's high noon' is the events-based scenarios for the battles of breitenfeld, luetzen and noerdlingen, using reduced movements / firing ranges, light troops / artillery abstraction, and dynamic AP, obsessively detailed oob, resulting in a completely different gaming experience.)

took some nudging but we're getting somewhere. i will post details shortly but it involves 3 asymmetrical mirror games for a total of 6 games per player to be played simultaneously. it shouldn't last much more than a month (breitenfeld and noerdlingen have 15 turns, luetzen 13), which is good because anything longer saps interest. we can probably start next weekend if noone objects.

I'm channeling my inner-Wallenstein already, but some blonde Swedish guy calling himself Gustav keeps appearing out of the FOG and predicting my doom....and threatening church reformation along with smaller battalions and lighter guns. Am I going crazy?

not crazy, just more heretic, I suggest a cleansing burning. We have a handy stake set up over yonder, just bring some extra wood if you don't mind, budget cuts and all you know.
