Great pics, what are the rules "Blood Field"? I have not heard of them.

Thanks – Allen

Yes, great pictures. I am also curious about the rules.

Hello Allen and Dale, Blood Fields are a "self made" rule system to medieval scenarios. Its simple and easy. We really likit. I will try translate it soon. Its just 10 pages.

Impressive layout! Richard

Thank you for translating. I have 2 6mm feudal armies that have been done for years and I have never gamed with them. A set of rules for small scale might encourage me to pull them out and use them!
