Catholic Girls Vs Zombies

I prepared two warbands to test an upcoming update to my AI Deck Solo system for Songs of Blades and Heroes. Written by Andrea Sfiligoi, Song of Blades and Heroes is a popular skirmish ruleset and deservedly so. In my scenario the girls at a Catholic Summer Camp abscond during the night to perform a dark ritual in a nearby cemetery. They rise some dormant Zombies. Luckily, Father Morrison was a veteran army chaplain and Sister Claire is quite adept at mortifying flesh.

Napoleonic Battlerep with Hordes of the Things

Today I tested my HoTT Napoleonic variant playing a battle of French Vs British with Wofun 18mm miniatures. I used the Solo Tactical Engine uploaded by David Lemon to the file section of the DBA & HOTT Wargaming FB group. It worked great! Before the battle, poor scouting only revealed to the French the presence of Highlanders in the village. Napoleon deploys with a strong center of veterans wearing dustcoasts. ... and a battery strategically placed on the heights. Wellington chooses a mixed center, allied infantry stiffened by the thin red line... ...and close artillery support... ...which he directs personally. The battle rages on!! Specially in the center and the French right. On the left, conscript units on both sides just stare at each other, The French veterans advance and do not waver when battered by cannon fire. On the British left, 1st Foot infantry advances with Dragoons in close support. The chaps of the 1st Foot face and repel an ambush from v...

How to run solo 6 nations campaigns

Since DBA 1.0, the rules include a very cool six nations campaign system with provisions for sieges, alliances, reserves, detachments, hidden placement of field armies, etc. The campaign rules can be downloaded for free from the History of WARGAMES RESEARCH GROUP website. This system also appeared alongside the HOTT fantasy rules. After the following map I will list 3 solo engines that have been published for this campaign system to automatically drive the non-player nations. * Programmed Leaders for DBA Campaigns: an article by P.J. Raper that was published in Wargames Illustrated 84. It uses personalities to automate the decisions of non-player factions. * Programmed Nations in DBA Campaigns. An adaptation of the preceding article. It can be downloaded from HERE . * Solo DBA Campaigning by Ian Duncan. A different system that uses a deck of cards to control non-player factions. It's the one I will use for my campaign. It was published in Lone Warrior #110. It may be f...

Five Parsecs From Home (1e) Campaign (session 0)

Inspired by Shaun's blog I decided to start a Five Parsecs From Home 1st edition campaign. I like this edition because it has less book keeping than the current edition and the FiveCore combat system is suited to my taste. I will use these books: Five Parsecs From Home (1e) FiveCore Skirmish gaming (1e) Every Star an Opportunity supplement for planet descriptions Scum and Villany for factions because they are quirky and fun Session 0 involved character creation. The group will consist of 3 PC + 1 goon. They meet in the planet Nemain because all three of them are in trouble with the authorities.The randomly generated characters were (from left to right): Echo (a bounty hunter with a Power Claw), Sakir (and ordnance specialist from a religious cult) and Christa (a genetically enhanced hulker modified to have an absurdly strong body). And below is their full character sheet, including talents, backstory and current armoury: Nemain would bet quite an agreeable planet if it we...
