Borders of Blood is a set of wargame rules inspired by the largest armed conflict in the history of South America, the Triple Alliance War (or War of Paraguay, or the Guasú War). The system was developed by Victor Barone, for 28mm scale, but can be used, with small adjustments, with smaller scales, including 6mm, since the basic concept of the rules uses the construction of Infantry Battalions and Cavalry Squadrons from units that can house miniatures of varying scales. The main objective is to provide an easy-to-learn regulation, but don't forget the realism and historical accuracy.

Includes uniform painting guides by Alan Perry.
