Stepping Into the Age of Marlborough

Please subscribe!
So I was invited to try out a new set of rules one of Farnborough Wargaming Society members Lance Flint is publishing for the Wars of Marlborough period. This isnt a period I have ever played so it was something exciting and new.
We played 15mm British-Dutch vs French-Bavarian and had a chance to give the new rules - Match and Flint - a great run through.
If you want to get hold of the rules, you can get a preview and Army builder for free on the Wargame Vault, and by the time this video goes live the rules should also be there for $8, about £6.
Lance tells me that they will also be available through ebay soon and then later from Magister Militum and Dave Lanchester Books.

Enjoyable video and great-looking game. 15mm is the way to go with Marlburian Era battles!!
Thanks for upload

[@BootsontheTable]

Glad you liked it - yeah those sorts of massed battles work well in 15mm

[@philRminiatures]

Splendid lines of battle, great looking game!!

[@BootsontheTable]

It certainly has the feel of the period

[@locarno24]

First of the videos where you mentioned this was Farnborough - hello down there! Came along for a few months about ten years ago when I was on a placement; have fond memories both of the town and the group...

[@BootsontheTable]

yes we are Farnborough Wargaming Society although sadly we moved the club to Aldershot since the building we were in was/is planned for demolition and redevelopment

[@PtolemyTheNorthernChap]

Good vid, busy club by the sounds of it. Great insight in to the rules :)

[@BootsontheTable]

yeah its pretty active most weeks. The rules were fun for sure

[@MedievalWargamer]

what a beautiful battle Dom!Love the armies the terrain...beautiful!

[@BootsontheTable]

It was certainly an impressive sight seeing the lines of troops on the table! The guys have quite a collection

[@MedievalWargamer]

@@BootsontheTable In my case this is what is all about...painting is a means to an end for me..and the end is mass imposture battles..;)

[@BootsontheTable]

Yes it got me excited about 15mm figures again.... the ability to fight large battles rather than smaller scale 28mm engagements is certainly visually satisfying

[@matthewanderson7521]

I am very interested in the rules.

[@BootsontheTable]

Matthew Anderson take a look on Wargames Vault, they should be there very soon if they are not already

[@ModellingforAdvantage]

Interesting looking system.

[@BootsontheTable]

yeah it worked very nicely

[@frankhammond1434]

Beautiful models Dom, what make are they?

[@leonleese4919]

I couldn’t listen because of background noise overpowering the commentary. Unfortunate!

[@BootsontheTable]

sorry its a gaming hall so noise happens
