Note: this table of contents is not final, we may add (rather then remove) something for it. We show skirmish and division here as ‘old' and ‘new' to make it easier for You to spot new stuff; the way it will be presented in the book will be slightly different.
You may noticed that there are some currently available pdfs that are missing here: Danes, Swedes from border of Halland and Scania, ‘The Invincibles', Czarniecki's division and Piaseczyński's regiment. The reason for it is simple – they will be published as a part of the another book, which will be focused on war in Denmark and Swedish Pomerania. Our reliable Michał ‘Kadrinazi' Paradowski gathered plenty of materials and it's already working on it – we want to assure that it will be worth to wait for it, even if You don't play brave Danes. To answer any possible questions – not publishing date for this book yet.
Regarding ‘Armies..' – we would like to publish them in December 2015. For the first time in history of BFaS we would like to publish both Polish and English versions on the same time.
