With just a few days to spare before Trumpeter's Salute our table is done. Just a few details left to add some character…
… and then I have to do my taxes.:(


More pictures and words on my blog.

That is GREAT! Congrats to all both for the creation of the rules and the fantastic work on the table.

do you plan to make the rules available?? I have some 2mm forts which would be perfect for such a game! Pleeeeeasee..

Very good, very impressive.

That looks brilliant!

Really clever idea with the removable centre pieces so that the siege works can evolve the longer the siege goes on.

I really love it and can't wait to see how the game finally looks.

Thank you very much guys. For those that are interested there is a link in my blog to Murdock's blog with a couple of play test AAR's on the unfinished table.

Valerio: the rules are called Fire and Stone and are rather Old School, if you like that sort of thing, as they are adapted from a set that appeared in a book published in the 1970's on Vauban forts and sieges. I may have gone with something adapted from a newer set but Murdock loves those older sets; perhaps it's nostalgia.

They are sort of home made; although they are based on the Fire & Stone rules they have been modifed by Murdock. How heavily I do not know.
