I bought the battalion version of Brandywine called the Kriegsspiel version. The map is twice as big and they use smaller blocks representing regiments rather then brigades. You can play this using the Prussian Army 19th century Kriegsspiel rules, or the battalion level Pub Battles rules.
I am unclear of some of the actual differences in rules interpretation. I have written to the company and asked about how certain rules actually work. Once I am better informed I will be write up of a game and how it is different from the Brigade level game.
Until then here is some eye candy of the new maps and counters.
What lovely looking games these are Mark…
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I am very tempted…
All the best. Aly
They really do look good and are a fun set of games to play. Easy to set up and great for those times you want a game but do not have time to set up the miniatures.
DeletePure eye candy indeed! Looking forward to an AAR/thoughts on the rules as and when you are able.
ReplyDeleteI am writing it up now. Will probably post about the Germantown game next and the KS Brandywine after that.
DeleteThe map and counters certainly look good.
ReplyDeleteThey are like works of art.
DeleteKriegspiel blocks on a map...what's not to love?
ReplyDeleteI liked this one as it has the looks of your game.
