Other people's Portable Wargame battle reports: The Seven Years War

What do you get when you mixed THE PORTABLE NAPOLEONIC WARGAME rules with figures from the collection of the late Eric Knowles? You get an excellent set of PORTABLE SEVEN YEARS WAR rules and some great battle reports!

On his THE RAGGED SOLDIER blog, David in Suffolk has featured a couple of battle reports where he has used a variant of my PORTABLE NAPOLEONIC WARGAME rules. (The changes he has made are summarised on his blog.) The latest is entitled 'The Combat at Vier Arme', and I thoroughly recommend my regular blog readers to visit the blog and read his battle reports.

  2. People keep playing it Bob - that is a good sign ;)
    Must admit I thought I would have immersed myself in games by now by other than a few "bits and bobs" it has been BAU on the games front. OK I am still working but there is so much more down time!

    1. Geordie an Exiled FoG,

      The feedback I’ve had has been very positive, with a fair number of people saying that they are using PW during the current pandemic because it can be played solo or using things like Skype.

      All the best,

      Bob
