Did any Army Lists (and perhaps rules mods) ever get developed for the Koenig Krieg rules for AWI? A little Google-fu brought up some references, but I was never able to find any actual data. |

My version from 1985 has AWI lists. |

1985? I didn't realize it had been around that long. I have V3 by Siege Works Studios (actual file name of the PDF indicates V3.2.0). |

No. It does not suit AWI. Way of fighting, casualties, inless much twicked, , just as well get something at least intended for it. |

v4 which hopefully will be released this year will apparantly include AWI , how it plays I have no idea. "There will be seven books in the new Koenig Krieg series, these are; Koenig Krieg Ruklebook – with all the lists for the WPS/WAS/SYW, WBS 1730-1789 La Guerre du Roi – 1660 -1730 Freedom – American Wars 1776-1880 Rise of Nations – European Nations 1820-1880 Heresy – 1600-1660 The Sun Never Sets – Colonial wars 1820 – 1902. Der Grosse Koenig – Campaign and Siege rules" |

WoW! I didn't realize KK was still around! :D I think KK might be fine for the very large AWI battles, but not for the majority of them. It's just a slightly larger scale. I would suggest "The British Are Coming!", but I don't see them available right now… Maybe eBay? |

There is the new set of AWI rules on kickstarter at the moment from the people who did the "Over the Hills" Napoleonic set , it's already 75% funded after only a few days. And the sooner you all get it funded then the quicker I might see the ACW set that is due up next. |

The British are Coming? A D100 based game. Uh, no. |
Neal Smith | 08 Jun 2018 5:53 p.m. PST |
Any particular reason? Do you think you are rolling a 100 sided die? |
codiver | 08 Jun 2018 7:27 p.m. PST |
No, you obviously roll percentiles, 2XD10s with one being a 10's die. I've looked at the charts; there appear to be a large number of modifiers, and combined with keeping track of the math translates into every roll being slow to calculate. |

OK, suit yourself. It's not really that bad… |

Not to thread hijack (but as that has already happened….) The British Are Coming! are indeed available: link And there is a discussion group for it: link And if one looks in the Files section one will find a D6 version! |
