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.

This is the warband

Five Parsecs From Home (1e) Week 1

Fleeing from the brutal crackdown decreed by governor Mantis on people that are not up on their taxes, our drifters ( see session 0 ) meet in a back alley of the mega-city Nemain. They don't want to be pressed on the local guard to make up for their debt. They read on each others eyes the fear of being at the end of the rope. Sakir, a paranoid and resourceful enforcer tasked by a fringe religious group to scout the galaxy for ancient artifacts, suggests to the pair a temporary refuge. He knows the location of an Ashtari Cult den. After all, they also worship artifacts and their religion is in good terms with Sakir's fringe cult. The other two agree. Mostly to rest for a while and also for the chance to sample the infamous gasses that the Ashatari inhale to have visions of archeological sites. Sakir Once in the den they relax. Perhaps a little too much. Echo, the quiet and lethal bounty hunter, wrecks a sofa with her power claw while whole-body-shaking enthralled by the drug. An...

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 voltigeurs l...

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 like most. It was published in Lone Warrior #110. It may be found with some ...
