Just thought some may be interested in a recent Piquet FOB battle we fought at the author's house. I posted this AAR on my blog.

This is very cool! I'm a big fan of Field of Battle. Seems like nice games are always being run over at Brent's house!

Thanks for posting it.

Thanks. Yes, Brent's basement is wargaming with class. He even supplies coke and bottled water. I have to bring my own coffee however. This was one of the closest games in recent history.

Yeah, anytime you come down to one chip that's real close. I remember a Zulu War FOB game I ran. The Zulus were just about to over run my main line when they lost 3 chips and had two given to me (I was at one). Then army morale check. They failed. It's one of the reasons I LOVE FOB! Best set of rules I have ever played. I was excited to see some discussion on Brent's blog about using FOB for the Plain's Indian War. That would be great!

Thanks,

John
