"2011 TMP Awards! Best New Historical rules" Topic

Today's Poll Suggestion is for "Best Historical rules of 2011".

The rules are simple.

This must be a brand new set of rules for use in a Historical setting.
It CAN be a new revision, as in "2nd Edition".
It can be army rules, an RPG, simple skirmish rules, etc.
It can be in any scale, any level.
It is NOT for a supplement, codex, etc. These will be in a Separte Poll.

Finally, it must have first gone on sale, anywhere in the world, in the calendar year 2011.

To make it to the Round One Poll, a "rules set" must be nominated on this thread. It will do no good to complain that your favorite range is not listed if it has not been nominated.
I cannot help you if you have "Poll Suggestions" turned OFF.

BTW, let's nominate a LOT of nominees. The last one was emabrrassingly short.

BTW, I SPAMMED as many Boards as possible, so no one can whine about "Poll suggestions" being turned off.
Ya snooze, ya lose.

Field of Glory: Renaissance

Napoleon at War

Hail Caesar!

I Ain't Been Shot Mum, v.3

Second for I Ain't Been Shot Mum v3.

Paul

Force on Force. (I think they were released in 2011!)

Napoleon at War for me as well I think.

Saga for me, thanks.

Bill.

Hsil Caesar

Kampfgruppe Normandy.

There were some good ones released including all of the above which I have bar FOGN but KGN is an excellent set of rules.

Saga

Republic to Empire

Not sure if it belongs to the historical or fantasy categories, but I nominate Witchfinder General!

Off the top of my head and not mentioned above:
Polemos Ancients
PMG Ancients (Portsmouth Miniatures and Games)

Force on Force

Kampfgruppe Normandy

Hail Caesar, I guess.

IABSM v3

"Republic to Empire" came out in 2009, not 2011. So did Force on Force.

FoG-Ren came out in 2010.

Saga.

I second Field of Glory: Renaissance

Mike

"I second Field of Glory: Renaissance"

And I second that it came out in 2010, not 2011.

Hail Caesar (x 5).

Waterloo

The Osprey Edition (2nd Edition) of Force on Force was released in April of 2011.

I think 2nd Editions still qualify, don't they?

Shawn.

SAGA!

Finally, it must have first gone on sale, anywhere in the world, in the calendar year 2011.

It doesn't matter when you bought it,

I think 2nd Editions still qualify, don't they?

Read the opening post.

Operation Squad

Hail Caesar

Regimental Fire and Fury

(in that order)

SAGA
Operation Squad
Hail Caesar
Napoleon at War

Black Caesar Powder Hail

Regimental Fire and Fury

Disposable Heroes: Point Blank

New Rules were players command a squad and a bit more, and still compatible with all the briefing that Iron Ivan published before it.

Drums and Shakos Large Battles by Ganesha Games. The Italian version came out in 2011 and the English version in 2012.

Force on Force

Clash of Empires.

Released in April 2011.

Black Caesar Powder Hail

Naughty Royal!

Force on Force, 2nd Edition

I've already put in Force on Force, but I would also like to add Waterloo, and even propose Waterloo for a new award -- Best Wargames Book.

I only bought Waterloo as an afterthought in the 50% off Warhammer sale. And boy did warhammer wiff when they only sold this mail order -- as you have to see this book to see just how fantastic it is. Now the rules may be rubbish. But the uniform guide, potted history, and ;inked scenario campaign are worth their weight in gold. I am painting napoleonics again. Nuff said!

Polemos Ancients for the one true scale

IABSM 3
BWW

Beneath the Lily Banners 2nd Edition

Has to be IABSM v3 for me. A great set of WW2 rules just got better, and now in colour too!
