Hello,

For those that have been following the development of these fast play, small board solo-friendly rules:

I have updated the rules and army lists after the recent 30 playtests I did in 30 days. After 3 years of playing these rules and over 100 games, I am comfortable with the rules. While I will continue to playtest them, they are at a stable version and am not planning to change them for a while. Even then, I expect the changes will only be minor. The rules, army lists and other bits and pieces of information can be found at this blogger page:

A stable version?…..Straight from the horses mouth? ( pun intended….sorry mate, couldn't resist it )

Cheers Andy😁

I will ignore your neigh-sayering :-)

Hay! Don't take it personally, just a bit of Aus-stallion humour :-)

Shaun Travers30 Oct 2015 10:56 p.m. PST

At this rate, you may spur me on to more puns, but I think I will rein myself in for now.

I know I'm closing the barn door after the horse has bolted but you shouldn't let him get the bit between his teeth, or he'll ride roughshod over you.

Hey, I guess I bail and fold. You winney the race.

I suppose that pun-ic warfare is appropriate for Ancient rules !!!

Enough already! Stop horsing around! wink

Thanks for the rules Shaun. Glad they are stable and won't burst into flames on the first read. grin I'll have a look at lunch time today.

Congratulations!! Have been following your blog for, what feels like, ever, reading every AAR you put up (well, some more in detail than others of course, but so what :)
Thank you for the rules and for your time and effort. And, as rules guys can't get enough, maybe you will start/end reviewing those other rules sets I seem to recall you had in mind but not the time for until ABC was finished?
Either way, take your time (with your familiy) and happy Wargaming!

Hello Olivero,

Thanks for reading the AARs. Yes, I do hope to review some more rules. I have a battle chosen to replay and 4-5 rules I have read and likely to play over the next few months, barring other distractions.
