Hi Ratty, The availability of the H&H system as a free download drew the attention of many ancients players. Tony, one of our club members has, driven by his passion for ancients, produced army lists and adaptations for a range of ancient armies. The reality is that any system that works for medieva...

This game pitted the mobile shooting power of the medieval Ottomans against the higher morale and tougher hand-to-hand combat abilities of the French HYW army. Both large armies were of equal points with 5 generals each. The Ottoman army of 28 units included 13 units of Sipahis and Akinci bow armed ...

The splendid town in this scenario has been built by Dave Mack and provided a superb context for this British infantry assault on this German held French town. Rules: Command Decision converted to hexes for greater speed and precision. The German defenders were occupying the various buildings, but t...

This was a large club game using the hex-based adaptation of the Command Decision WWII rule set with all terrain and miniatures provided by Dave Mack from his extensive collection.

Equal numbers ...

Four identical armies, each with a points value of 151 and four club member given total control over their allocated command. The idea for this scenario was to try and re-create the typical WOTRs command and control situation, where generals had independent authority over their own troops but not ot...

Hi When cavalry/mounted units occupying an open ground hex but are engaged in hex-to-hex contact with a unit occupying a river,wood, broken ground, or built up area hex they fight as normal but lose any impact bonus. A good example would be a unit of 4 heavy cavalry stands,with a combat factor of 5 ...

We have been play testing the unit stats which Tony has produced to enable the Hordes & Heroes rule system to be used with various ancient armies. All the 6mm miniatures are from his extensive collection. The are based specifically for use with the H&H system but any base sizes can be used as long a...

This scenario pitched two War of The Roses armies with very different compositions against each other. The Lancastrian army (in red), had 5 units of mounted men-at-arms, equal numbers of billmen and longbows. The Yorkist army (in blue), had 2 units of mounted men-at-arms, 2 units of hobilar light ca...
