Wargame Rules

BLOG BACKGROUND AND WARGAME RULES
I have set up this blog for my wargaming interests in the Muscovite-Tartar Wars, Reconquista Wars, the Barbary Coast Pirates, and the early campaigns of the Ottoman Turks and Saracens. Some lesser known crusades will also be covered. Miniatures are mainly 28mm with a growing collection in 54mm. If my photographs serve to encourage others to complete their collections I shall be pleased. I will also be mentioning other sites with interesting collections on the above. Do join the 'Friends' if you like what you see.

I prefer to use my own rules which are kept simple and involve eight-sided dice. These allow for fast results with various types of weaponry. Morale dominates my games.

Almohad and Marinid Campaign Additions

My North African Moors have now gained a unit of crossbowmen in their ongoing struggles with the Nasrids of Granada, and the Hafsids of Tunis. Have also increased their baggage train by utilising some rather smallish horses in my spares box. Have furnished a few more of the latter for the Hafsids too. MGB

    1. Thanks Willie, it was fun clearing some of the items in the spares box. I'm a bit behind uploading some game photos, and the table is set for a small Marinid versus Granadine action. Quite small, a garrison of about 40, mainly civic militia, against besiegers numbering 80. The latter having a higher morale rating.

  2. I much enjoy seeing the BTD crossbowmen! I have a few BTD archers for my own Reconquista project on the painting desk. Nice baggage train too!

    1. Jonathan, I do agree with you concerning the BTD range. Very clean, elegant castings, all the detail such as belts etc are coherent for the paintbrush. Thanks for the comment.
