Battle over Britain series

Classic dogfight match-up (Spitfire Vs ME-109E) in a game from the Battle over Britain series from Minden Games. Volume 5, Tally Ho! (2018) is the one with more scenarios and it includes the base rules, although I think a re-release is coming named Dogfight!

The game models very well the differences between planes with minimal rules overhead. Gary Graber knows his stuff! As it stands, it is a wonderfully fun and quick 2-player game (especially with the 7 or 13 games campaign). Tally Ho comes with solitaire rules, but I find them somehow lacking. I am working on alternatives solo rules and this afternoon I had a chance to test them.

Peninsular War variant for 'The Men Who Would Be Kings'

Reading about the Peninsular War, I had the idea that the “pop-up and slink away” style of Mr. Babbage would suit the ambushing tactics of a guerrilla centric Allied Army. So I wrote these army lists that do not change any base rule, except if you use Lancers (which is optional anyway). Of course, you can play it with a friend if you wish. This is a variant for The Men Who Would Be Kings' by Osprey Wargames. DOWNLOAD HERE

Long Range Recon Patrol

Long Range Recon Patrol, by Mike Lambo. The elements that make it such a good reconnaissance solo game are: It creates a thrilling narrative each time. There are many decisions to be made because the different dice results overlap several possible orders. It has several push-your-luck mechanisms: do we fast move in a jungle? Risk entering a village? Force a river crossing?
