This is another game in play testing my new ancient rules by replaying historical battles. This one is the Battle of Vosges 58BC between Caesar and the Germans. I am play testing the rules by chronologically replaying all the Peter Sides scenarios from his Historical Battles books. I was using my own rules – Ancient Battlelines Clash (ABC) – for the previous games but am now using new rules I have written called When Warriors Collide. I am stull writing the body of these rules; and do have a post with an overview of them and why I changed:

The battle report is here:

And here is a shot of the initial battleline clash:
