Marlburian Black Powder - great to get the Dutch out again!



A few weeks ago we had a great opportunity to play a Black Powder Marlburian battle at the club. 1250 points aside and an encounter seeing the heroes of Europe, my Dutch, taking on the Bavarian and German state upstarts.

  2. Nice looking game- one of my all-time favourite periods. Some of the figures look familiar! Do you think Black Powder works well for this- I've never used it for WSS.

    1. Cheers John for your knd comments. I’ve only played in BP games for ECW and Marlburian as my Napoleonic riles of choice are GdA by Dave Brown. I think the rules are fantastic for this period and the games we play always are fast moving and enjoyable.

  3. Beautiful armies Carlo; A bit short on narrative, though! :-)

    1. I know Peter and I promise to be better next time 😉. I have been flat out recently getting a few hints sorted but will come back and add a few lines to the post ASAP.

  4. Why distract from the pics with boring narrative?
    I might have to try this avant-garde style of posting for myself. 😀
    Great looking battle lines.
