This is just a heads up that I will be debuting my new War of 1812 rules Red Coats and War Hawks at Historicon in 2 weeks time where I am also running two games:

1) Friday July 20th at 2:00 pm – The Skirmish at Oakwoods

2) Saturday July 21st at 1:00 pm – Convoy Raid

Please check out my website for more details on the rule system at:

battlefieldgamedesigns.com

If you are interested in more details please drop me a line at:

battlefield_designs (at) rogers (dot) com

Otherwise you can catch up with me in the mornings at Historicon at the Pre-Registration desk which is where I will be Thursday – Friday – Saturday mornings. Hope to see some of my fellow TMP colleagues there.
Regards,
Hitman

It seems that the server is down at the moment as it did work earlier this morning. I cannot access it right now either. Please try back again later. We had a severe thunderstorm go through our area and it might have knocked the server down temporarily.

Sorry about the invconvenience.

While we are waiting for the web site to come up…
Are they skirmish rules? or if not…
What is the ratio of troops ie 1:20.
What is the scale of figures?
Thanks

I'll be there friday & saturday with two of my brothers. If there is room for teh friday game I will sign up. My much older brother (Brass1 on TMP)is a big War of 1812 guy.

IronDuke;
Scale is set for 28mm skirmish action where each figure represents an individual. The rules can be modified for 15mm up to 54mm fairly easily.

John the Greater;
I missed the PEL listing by 1 hour, so you should be able to get into a game. The games are slated for 12 to 13 players.

I will have copies of the rules for sale at H-Con.

Hitman

Good luck with your project.
