Cool. I still have my WRG 6th ed. But it's probably been 30 years since I played. Have thought about breaking it out for a 1620s Sweden v. Poland

Losing a general is never a good thing. How many points per side did you use?

Anton Ryzbak23 Mar 2024 9:10 p.m. PST

korsun0, Normally we play 1250 points which allows enough points to get interesting extras with most armies. Our usual gaming surface is 6x4 so any more points leaves the table too crowded. On occasion we break out the banquet tables which gives us 5x8 feet and allows lots more room and even more points.

Thanks for that. 1250 was our usual club size game with the CinC for free. I agree that extra points, depending on the Army can get cramped.

Cheers
Jon
