BAR: Batailles de l'Ancien Régime 1740-1763.

This time Troopers Ham and Corey set the record straight – really straight – about a topic dear to the author's heart. This plus captioned photos of artillery fire further explain how the rules operate.

See it all through briefly captioned photos and narration by Troopers Ham and Corey, 10th Hussars, Surajistan Field Force here:

No paragraphs of verse from me and I hope it is visually and cerebrally entertaining.

Respectfully,

What a fresh and original approach! Highly entertaining and illuminating.

The troopers sound like some of my old drill sergeants:

'Continue to watch this way, gentlemen, and I shall give you a compleat demonstration of the movement…

Points to note – the knee is jerked upwards until the thigh is parallel to the deck…'

Nicely presented and very enlightening. Love the use of handspike men as pointers – will have to find a use for that ploy!

Not my period, but an entertaining read. Great job!

A very creative and entertaining approach to demonstrating the rules.

Please consider selling a pdf of these at some point- they're right at the point where I can't justify the price + postage.

The price includes postage, the latest SYW Quick Reference Charts dated 30 January 2013 and about eight pages of User Notes available only from the author.
