That has got to get an award for most brief rules description…

You mean I might win an award? Awesome!

Be certain to buy a set and give some feedback. I've cleaned up the rules over the years, but some sections to me still are a bit fuzzy and while I understand the concepts in my head, at times my intentions might not come through to another set of eyes.

I probably am not up on history like I should be thanks to my public education but can I get alittle more information on this.
Such as whose Northwest and why people were fighting there?

From the usual source:

"The Northwest Indian War (1785–1795), also known as Little Turtle's War and by various other names, was a war fought between the United States and a confederation of numerous American Indian tribes for control of the Northwest Territory. It followed centuries of conflict over this territory, first among Indian nations, and then with the added shifting alliances among the tribes and European powers, such as France and Great Britain, and their colonists."

The main question is which figures to use for the era? Which manufactures?

For 28mm?

15/18 mm?

40 mm?

I may have suddenly found an new sub period of interest…

Old Glory makes a 28mm line and also has the new Bluemoon 18mm range which is excellent.

Thanks,

John

From a recent post of mine (re: figures):

As for figures, yes, you have some choices. In small 20mm, Frying Pan and Blanket have a complete and accurate line (use the Indians for the Rev War range). In 25/28mm Old Glory has a range, but some of the equipment is incorrect. Parkfield Miniatures has a few Wayne's Legion figures as well, more accurate than Old Glory, and Parkfield and Old Glory will blend together fairly well. Parkfield makes Indians, and I also suggest Conquest Miniatures for 28mm Indians.

Hope that helps!

These rules have been in the works for years. Glad they came to print. A true labor of love and a neat period. Great work Darryl!
