We just refought the battle of Waterloo using my Homebrew C&C: Napoleonics rules, which I came up with in 2009 because I couldn't wait for the real thing. After a few years of playing and tweaking, it's pretty good
so good, that I actually prefer it to the real thing. Here's the link to the blog: link I currently have French, British, and Prussian armies and plan to do Austrian and Rusian forces once Perry has enough figures to do the entire armies (love me some Perry Minis).
I also have both Civil War armies and rules, and am currently working with Scott MacPhee (a brilliant miniatures painter) on the Punic armies for Ancients. |

Congrats on the win. Looked like a fun game. |

Thanks! We had a blast. It became pretty tense as the Prussians were really pouring in on my right and starting to put pressure on me. If my attack on the left didn't succeed, I probably couldn't launch my planned atttack on the center due to the proximity of the Prussians
and then I would have had to hand over initiative to my opponent
which I HATE! ;-) In the end, the desperate attack of the Imperial Guard Infantry with the remnants of the depleted left wing cavalry prevailed. |

Care to share your homebrew rules? |

Sure thing. Is there a way to post a word doc here or is it better to email? |

Is there a way to post a word doc here or is it better to email? Well you could copy and paste the ext into a message here, but you wouldn't want to do that unless the rules are very short. There are loads of free web sites around where you can upload files. I use Google Sites. |

Put it on Google Docs, share the document, and then post the link on your blog. Dale |
