  I am starting a project of putting my 28mm Perry ACW battle in a Box together, with a view to getting a 28mm game onto a smallish table. I will be doing a number of posts that will look at the Perry box from a 'starter set' perspective, so using the Perry rules and looking at painting times etc. The first blog post can be found HERE.  link   |

  I absolutely love the Firepower Rules. The older I get the more I like simpler rules. That said, I think Firepower does a great job incorporating the garbled communications inherent in 19th century warfare by making you roll for distance when it comes to movement. It simplifies what Black Powder does with a similar result. Thanks for the post.   |

  Just curious…. Can these rules be ordered or do I need to purchase the Acw set to procure them?  Thanks!   |

  I got them with the box. Don't know if you get them separately.   |

  If leobarron2000 doesn't want the Firepower rulebook, I'll buy them off you. Please contact me at hydraminiatures@yahoo.com or PM me. Thanks, Matt Beauchamp Hydra Miniatures hydraminiatures.com   |

  Sorry, I meant GoodOldRebel. Are you willing to sell your set of Firepower rules?   |
