Someone on another thread mentioned using different rules for shooting and combat for Pony Wars. Any suggestions for that, while still using the cards for movement and such?

Oh, and I'm planning on using Baccus 6mm for the figs. Was thinking maybe The Men Who Would Be Kings.

I think it might've been me that mentioned it – but actually I was making the case for using the cards and reaction tests to someone who building Pony Wars forces (http://bennosfiguresforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=25941) but going to use Black Powder and his own random placement rules.
Personally I find the existing rules OK for combat and shooting and being done on percentages easy to understand. I only have the original Ian Beck rules but presume they've not been changed in the recent Baccus edition.

There is always Yellow Ribbon. The Men who would Be Kings variant and even the TSATF Tomahawk and the Flame. There is a Pony Wars scenario in 2nd edition Black Powder too.

Thanks

We use the TSATF Tomahawk and the Flame and it works very well with Pony Wars
