Comparing Black Powder to Field of Battle

Image
A few months ago I bought a new set of rules that really intrigued me. It is called Piquet: Field of Battle, 3rd Edition . (Here on I'll use FOB) You can find the rules at this link here: https://www.piquetwargames.com/ If you want to see a play example here is a YouTube video from Sgt. Stiner's channel. This video really helped to sell me on buying the rules. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VamPhGFcn-4 Warlord Games' Black Powder, 2nd Edition  rules (Here on I'll use BP) are also excellent. You can find their materials at: https://store.warlordgames.com/ BP   is the more well known and popular of the two rules. I judge this by the number of people on forums and gaming videos made. I don't think it necessary to post a video of BP rules in play here. A simple search on YouTube leads to dozens of BP battle report videos on a bunch of different channels to watch examples of play. What I want to do in this post is compare the two systems and talk about what I, personall...

Black Powder Play Sheet Adjustments

 I'm a new player of Black Powder . The playsheet in the back of the rules manual didn't have all that I needed on it for me. I also wanted to incorporate those rules that would go with my War of Spanish Succession that use The Last Argument of Kings Supplement. So I went ahead and made my own. I It isn't a single page as the BP one is. In fact, mine is 8 pages but it goes in sequence and helps me avoid the missteps and things I forget when I play. Getting old I guess. Anyways, here it is. Again, it has been modified for use with the War of Spanish Succession and the rules that would go with it. Perhaps you'll make your own modifications from it to suit your campaign/era?  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1thnRf5sDxPrntmPwHrPbQvRjK4xlDgB7/view?usp=sharing

FOB Battle Report, Elixheim: Overview

Image
  Wargamers Prayer: Dear Lord, You give us games that allow us to enjoy each other's company, share in fellowship, experience joy in play, learn from our past and memorialize those who came before us for the sacrifices they made. May you be with us in our games and learn about You as we play. Let's be ferocious opponents on the "battlefield" but even better friends in life. In Your Son Jesus name I pray. Amen. 1. The Story     1704 was a very successful year for the Grand Alliance (Britian, United Provences, Imperial Austria, and many German states). They had just defeated the French and Bavarians at Blenheim and Now Marlborough wants to go up the Moselle river to invade France itself. However, he needs the help of Imperial Austria to do this and they don't show up in time shutting the campaign down. Marlborough now retreats his army to Flanders where he plans to push the French out of the Low Countries in what is now Belgium.  The French have built a line of defe...
