OK, I need to start a new period like I need a hole in my head, but what rules would you use for 28mm? I would like something that doesn't require units of more than 12 to 16 figures and doesn't need more than maybe three to five units per side. |

The obvious answer: Muskets & Tomahawks |

I use Muskets and Tomahawks. Song of Drums and Tomahawks is good too, especially for very small actions. |

Check out the following set of rules called Buckskins and Rangers at the link below: battlefieldgamedesigns.com The rules also include 320 games cards, t12 FIW Scenarios, Artillery templates, 1 reproducible game card sheet and the ability to run your games as skirmish or in units. What other game on the market can do that? Here is a link for an AAR on the Green Jackets and Voltigeurs rules which is written by the same author: TMP link Regards, Hitman |

We have a set of home grown rules we use with our 40mm FIW figures and they can easily be used with 28mm also. If you would like a copy just e-mail me and I will send you a copy. msc1d@aol.com |

I would also suggest Two hour Wargames rules "Long Rifle – man to man skirmish on the American frontier". A great set of rules, you can play solo if needed too, and you only need a handful of figures to start off with. |

TSATF – I use it for all my skirmish games. I do have other rules, but these save tons of time up front. |

We are going to begin a FIW project and use sharpr practice 2, but with 1/72 |

Why going to 28mm? Your AWI is 15mm and we have a fair amount of FIW in 15mm. |

Just thinking of the visual, Doug. |
