Won't make Historicon, and profoundly uninterested in "should be" releases. But if you'll let us know when it is out and how to order it, I'll probably be interested. |

Yes! I certainly noticed that photo. So excited to see another V&B product… Joe Collins |

Excellent, have looked forward to a scenario book to V&B! It is a "must buy" in my book. |

Some of these battles are pretty small to be playing them with 1 stand = a brigade scale. |
| Ponder | 22 May 2019 5:34 p.m. PST |
Howdy, You're right … The book also includes a section written by Frank Chadwick on Alternate Scale V&B. That's material which has been casually available, but not officially published. Four scale variants are defined, to address smaller actions. Scenarios 1-6 have 1 stand as a regiment (battalion scale). Scenarios 7-10 are conventional with 1 stand as a brigade. Ponder on,
