Steven Thomas (of Balagan.info) is developing a set of grand-tactical rules for the Thirty Years War. They are available for free download from Steven's blog at link

I'm quite excited by these and am starting a Thirty Years War project. More info on my own blog at link

Really like the basing and scale of the game. Downloaded the rules. Look interesting.

Thanks!

Thanks, fascinating period of history, really lacking some good rules. I've downloaded and will read through.

Thanks to @doctorphalanx for posting the download link and for sharing his thoughts as he gets into Tilly's Very Bad Day.

If you are interested in my own battle reports and general musing on the rules, then check out Tilly's Very Bad Day

Version 2 of TVBD is now available. This is a mature version with lots of new tweaks and improvements, but the core rules maintain their original fast-play simplicity.
