Hello all,

I was looking through my old computer the other night and found an introduction to Commands & Colors: Ancients article that I wrote for an e-zine back in 2006 or so.

I thought I'd post it on the blog in case it's of use to any miniatures gamers – especially those outside the UK -who may have been wondering what the game was all about.

There have been five more expansions since this was written so there's a lot more out there now.

Hope it's useful for someone!

Cheers,
Aaron

Or introduction 'to' Command and Colors, even!

Sorry about the typo

I started playing just last year, after having been introduced to the Napoleonic version. It's a great game, and I find it interesting how, with the same basic engine, a few difierences in troop types and (crucially) in the card deck provide an entriely different feel between the two periods.

It fits well into a club night, too.

I haven't played Napoleonics, but would like to give it a crack at some stage.
