Write up of another test game we played recently, this time its Justice Mills, another of Montrose's battles from his very successful 1644/45 campaign in Scotland using For King and Parliament rules with our Celtic Fringe house rules. The figures are 10mm from Pendraken. For a change I have tried to write it in vaguely C17th speak, with comments on the actual game in italics below the pictures. Here is a link to the blog: link I hope you find the C17th speak comprehensible! ;)

I tried Google Translate to no effect :) For King and Parliament and it's cousin, To the Strongest are great games and Montrose is an interesting character.

Nice report! Can you outline your Celtic Fringe house rules for "For King and Parliament" please or tell me where I can find them? I've been interested in doing the campaigns of Montrose for years and I have the "For King and Parliament" rules so your amendments would be very useful. All the best, George.

Thnaks for the comments, like the Goggle Translate reference! :) You can find a copy of DGuy's Celtic Fringe rules here: link Not the latest version but pretty much the same as the current ones. We're hoping to have a booklet covering Montrose's 1644-45 campaign completed early next year.

Hi, Many thanks for the link to your Celtic Fring rules, I was able to download a copy OK. I hope you get your Montrose's campaign book published next year and would buy one once it's out.
