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?

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

New Game System: Flames of War for World War II

Image
  Hello,  I have been busy with a lot of things and I have been gaming after reading. Last month, I bought a new game system for World War II gaming that is popular with many wargamers. It is called Flames of War and has been around since the early 2000's but it's the first time I have gotten into it. I found the rule book in a hobby shop and then ordered a starter army "Hit the Beach" set from Battlefront which makes the items for FOW. Hit the beach comes with two forces for D-Day, Americans and Germans.  The American force comes with a parachute platoon and up to 8, M4 Sherman tanks with 75mm or 76mm guns. The Germans have 2 anti-tank guns, 3 panzer IV tanks, and a panzergrenadier company. There is also a V-2 rocket model but has no effect on play. It's just a decoration that can be used as an objective for the Americans to take. I have built my models and have started to paint them. I'll post pictures when the are all finished. I like the great variety of i

Black Powder Rules Battle Report #1 The Battle of Many Mistakes

Image
 Hello, I have played two battles so far between my Dutch and Bavarian Armies. Both I played solitaire for now as I want to learn the rules, record questions that might come up, and share how it went. I'm enjoying it but I think I'll love it when I get to have a player to play with. This is actually my 2nd solitaire battle that this report is based on. I called it The Battle of Many Mistakes because as you will see. I made a lot of serious errors. However, war is like that. I'm sure Napoleon would not have interrupted me if he were my opponent. A note for you. You will see underlined 1's and 6's in the shooting sections. These represent unmodified rolls of 1's and 6's that are always a miss or always a hit. The Battle of Many Mistakes Victory Points and Objectives The bridge: 1 VP The house 1 VP each hill 1 VP each unit that breaks 1 VP for opponent Terrain The dirt road also consists of a bridge crossing ther river.  There are 3 hills. I may have to switch
