Hello All!
I have put together a short battle report from the my latest gaming session using the Donnybrook rules.  The scenario takes place somewhere inloggning the Northwestern frontier of the British colonies during French and Indian Wars. The full report can be found on my blog….

Nice work! What manufacture are your miniatures?

The Jeppan08 Mar 2015 2:00 p.m. PST

Thank you! :) The minatures are wild mix of a number of manufacturers. The Rangers are from North Star. Most of the French are from Warlord(originally Conquest miniatures). There is also some Foundry minis and Front Rank.

Nice photos of your terrain and figures. The AAR was neat to read. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you gentlemen for you kind comments! I am still a bit of a newbie when it comes to postningen on TMP as you can se with the /URL codes bits left after putting up the pictures. In my next postningen they will not be there.

As for the comming FIW gaming sessions; there will be more AAR and they will be linked in more of a campaign format. Finding working campaign rules is actually kind of tricky. If any out there have some good suggestions then I am all ears.

A very good battle report coupled with some great figures and terrain. Well done.

Re terrain; I really like the way you have painted the barn and small clapboard house, which is directly across the road. What manufacturer are the barn and clapboard house.?

Two Hour Wargames has F&I rules Musket and Mohawk. There are very simple campaign rules, no bookkeeping required. It has basic scenarios that can be linked.

Thank you gentlemen! :)
Regarding the terrain- the barn is a plastic kit from Renedra. I can rekommend it. It is a very useful piece of terrain and easy to build. The clapboard house is scratchbuilt. The basic material is foam core. The clapboard is made from strips of cardboard. You can use thin Wood or plastic card as well.

@vtsaogames: Thank's! I will check out Two hour wargames rules. Sounds like what I am looking for.
