SkirmishCampaigns: Bloody Big BALKANS Battles updated in PDF!
Yes, a new edition of the Bloody Big Balkan Battles! scenario book for the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 (BBBB) is now available in PDF. This expanded volume of Bloody Big BALKAN Battles includes a new total of 18 well-researched and playtested scenarios.
BBBB permits you to re-fight those great battles that saw the end of the Ottoman Empire in Europe and the formation of the basic modern borders in the Balkans. Nine scenarios cover some of the most important battles of the First Balkan War, covering the campaigns of Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria against the Ottoman Empire, which would drive the Empire to the very gates of Istanbul/Constantinople/Tsarigrad. Five scenarios then cover the Second Balkan War, the conflict between the successful allies, which pitted Serbia, Montenegro and Greece against Bulgaria over the legacy of the Ottoman Empire. In this updated edition, an additional four bonus scenarios (1876-1912) are also included.
Each scenario is distinctively different, portraying each battle's individual character and presenting players with different tactical challenges each time. Campaign options enable players to play the set as a campaign in which victory in one battle provides some plausible advantage in the next.
Bloody Big Battles! rules (BBB) and scenario books for a wide range of 19th Century and Napoleonic wars are now available.
