Caliver Books ECW Scenario books by Robert Giglio. I would probably adapt them for Dutch Wars and FWOR but is this a good resource? I cant get a sample for maps, OOB, writing clarity, scenario set up clarity, bathtub-ability etc. Are there better ECW scenario resources? Should I just mine my collection of digital WI and MW magazines for the occasional scenario? |

Blowing my own trumpet a little: TMP link link Designed for FK&P but very adaptable. |

Great cartoons! I especially love the fortune teller one on the left-hand-side. |

I'd love to see some skirmish level scenarios. |

The scenario books by Steve Maggs and Bob Giglio are very good.
They were designed mainly for FORLORN HOPE but are easily adaptable to other rules that use figure:man ratios. The scenarios range in size and can be bath-tubbed if you don't have enough figures simply by increasing the figure:man ratio. The same scenario can be played with 1 figure representing 5 men, or 50 men, or anywhere in between depending on your collection size and table size. Each book has 10-11 scenarios.
I highly recommend them. |

I highly recommend the Caliver scenario books. There are 4 with battles and a siege book. They give you enough information to adapt the scenarios to other rules. |
