Interesting.

I bought this from Lulu a while ago. Useful for other rulesets as well. Recommended.

Hi,
The review is good but can you tell me which battles the book covers please? This isn't mentioned in the review or the lulu page for ordering the book.
Also, how long does each scenario take to play and how many players would each one need?
Thanks,
George.

I would add a couple of questions. Do the maps have a scale (or scales)? Do the scenarios give numbers of troops for units such as brigades?

I have added to the blog post review a photo of the table of contents giving the battles covered, a sample map (the grid squares are 12", so with the normal VnB ground scale that's 1200 yards, and a sample roster sheet. Each strength box is around 500 men.

Hope that helps

Thank you. Where do I get it?

It is a print on demand book on Lulu.

Thanks. I tried looking there, but couldn't work out how to search for specific books.

Does anyone know where you can get a copy of the Volley and Bayonet Rule Set?

VnB can be bought here:

Also available 'From On Matters Military' I think
