Hi all, I know this isn't a miniature game, but since it's a medieval boardgame, I thougth some might be interested. The game is in a "pre-order" mode right now, but soon to be released. I could be useful for setting up some miniature battles. link Jon |

That's the immediate interest I would have in it: does it produce a campaign and battles, and does it do it elegantly? |

Hi Looking at it, it seems to be a battle game rather than what WE want, Doug, a more state driven in the Medeival Mediterranean game that generates miniatures games. We COULD tweek the system you did a few years ago and add ships and such. Rocky |

If it's like "All is Lost Save Honour" (their Italian Wars boardgame), it would be operational in scale covering one campaign. You could use it to figure out which troops made it to the battle, but there are no strategic or political options. Rich |

Oops, nevermind. It looks like its even more tactical than their other game. Rich |

It is tactical, did some playtest for it. Very nice system and very good game. You can use the rules for miniatures with little tweaks (much better system for the era than a lot of the vanilla stuff miniature gamers use). |
