I have finally finished and released Iron & Honor. For those who are interested, they can be purchased here:

I wanted to thank everyone who helped playtest them, most of whom were found through TMP.

Congrats on the release.
A few things are missing from the item description though:

-Are they PDF or softcover?
-How many pages?
-Illustrated? (B&W, color, full/partial)

Best of luck with the rules!

As a satisfied customer

PDF
55 pages including covers
Full Colour, lots of great painted minis on lovely terrain
Very professional artwork for other illustrations

I have to say these rules are very good and hit a nice simple sweet spot for interesting throwdown games. I tried the free playtest a while back and my impressions are in this AAR

The rules have evolved a little since the playest – much tighter now IMO and more traits to add further flavour

Good review, pauld – I think next payday I will have to pick up a copy of these. Question – are they compatible with 15mm figures? I just picked up a bunch of 15mm warbands from Splintered Light I was planning on using with SBH, hopefully they could be used with I&H too.

The measurement system is based in inches which is most suited to 28mm scale … so the often suggested trick of substituting centimetres should work perfectly for 15mm.

Interested in purchasing the rules, but not interested in giving all of my personal info. Anyway I can paypal you direct and you email me the PDF directly to my email address?

Having to fill out personal info when you take PayPal is completely unnecessary. PayPal has all the info you need.

Can anyone who has these please tell me if they contain campaign rules (i.e. rules for Mordheim style advancement, injuries etc)? I remember reading the playtest and being quite impressed, but it was a while ago, and the official website is short on detail.

Cheers,

Andrew

No Campaign Rules but it would be easy to cobble something together or borrow ideas from somewhere else – the stats are fairly simple after all.

Off the top of my head …

Every 3 Kills (or for campaign play better described as Out of Action) gain a +1 modifier in a skill set of choice

and for every kill a number of XP points to go toward buying additional Traits

Injuries – throw a dice

1 = Head Injury gain Indecisive trait for one battle
2,3,4,= Torso -1 penalty to PD for one battle
5 = Arms -1 penalty to combat stats for 1 battle
6 = Legs gain Slow trait for 1 battle

Not too hard to think things up but for good game play it would need small improvements and sensible limits so no Uber characters end up blitzing everything in sight (no fun in that)

Still stuck needing to fill in all that I do. A simple PayPal link would be great.
