Yeah, seems well researched, good campaign system. Covers a lot. Found one cringeworthy bit, in the section on bullfighting: 'Its inclusion here should not be taken as an indication that the author or publisher approves of or condones bullfighting' Nothing about the factual information or game material presented would imply that & its just putridly right-on, reminiscent of the over-politeness about 'native americans' in LotOW…

I've read some pretty in-depth books on glads & I'm learning stuff from the background chrome. But don't trust it until Allen says its OK…

We span over two thousand years of historical combat with two exciting new additions to our range: Mark Latham's Waterloo and Barry Hill's Gladiator.

Waterloo - Tabletop Wargaming in the Age of Napoleon

Waterloo

Mark Latham, writer of Warhammer Historical's popular Trafalgar rulebook, returns to the Napoleonic era with Waterloo, a new set of rules for playing tabletop wargames with 25mm-28mm miniatures set against the backdrop of this turbulent and dramatic period of European history.

Included in this full-color, 288-page, hardback rulebook are rules, army lists and historical orders of battle, as well as a brief history of the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars and a campaign for you to play through. To inspire you there is also a lavish hobby section that takes you through how to collect, assemble and paint your Napoleonic-era armies.

The focus of the rulebook is the campaign and battle of Waterloo itself, but also included are rules which enable players to recreate battles from the entire Napoleonic period of 1792-1815, and even beyond it.

Waterloo is available to order now for immediate dispatch, and Mark Latham has provided a Quick Reference and Roster Sheets as a free download along with some templates.

Gladiator - Deadly Arena Combat in Ancient Rome

Gladiator

Written by Barry Hill, Gladiator enables players to recreate the brutal arena combat of the Roman Empire on the wargames table.

This full-color, 144-page, hardback rulebook contains rules for gladiatorial arena contests featuring human combatants, wild animals, elephants and chariots as well as mass battle spectacles and mock sea-battles. Full rules and background are provided for gladiators of both the Imperial and Republican eras, along with ten action-packed scenarios and a detailed campaign system that allows rival gladiatorial schools to compete in several different periods of Roman history.

The Gladiator rulebook is packed with inspirational photography and a detailed hobby section covering collecting, assembling and painting gladiatorial miniatures. It is available to order now for immediate dispatch and you can also download a free Quick Reference Sheet from the Warhammer Historical website.
