Had fun on a rainy day running a solo game of Sikh War aggression, using Robert (Bob) Cordery's, "Bundock and Bayonet.

Enjoyed seeing this report, and the random scenario development tables. Wondering though why one was 2d6-2?

Thanks!
The table runs 0-10; at the time I couldn't find a d10 and so rolled 2d6 instead.

Ah, so 2 to 12 on the table is ok. Were the tables from "Bundock & Bayonet" or something else set up for solo gaming the 19th century?

It was great to see that my rules are still being used and that people are enjoying using them.

An excellent battle report, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Thanks Bob!

GP, the table is something I put together, possibly the third version of it, the others involved higher math!
I did redo the intro on how the game is played; I only included troop types common to the Wars, and made up my own iterpretation of what a jingal gun would be like when used by the Ghorchurras.

GP, I may take this up to the Maine Wargamers Day in October, and offer it for play.
