We played a final set of test games last Saturday with Pulse of Battle. Two games, 2nd Punic War. The Carthaginians had the advantage of a large leadership advantage, and somewhat better troop quality. They won both games, which wasn't too much of a surprise.
I'm very happy with PoB now. Only a couple of minor fixes popped up in the game, and the games played really well and smoothly.
PoB is now in the edit phase. It's in the hands of 4 thorough and capable editors, who are providing tons of edit suggestions to me. I think this set of rules will be by far the best edited, "cleanest" set that I've done.
That being said, I'm sure I'll see errors and typos when the first printed copy arrives!
A couple of photos from the games:
Great looking armies!
ReplyDeleteSuper cant wait
ReplyDeleteExcellent looking game! You can't beat Carthaginians with elephants! Well, unless you're the Romans.
ReplyDeleteVery nice game! What periods will be covered? From Sumerian to Middle Age or only Ancient and Classical era?
ReplyDeleteThe army guidelines cover 1300 BC to 500 AD, but it is very expandable. I'll be doing a version for later periods as well.
ReplyDeleteThank You for Your job. I'm very impatient to buy it.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Why there is not a Piquet Facebook profile, where the wargamer community can easily follow news, tips and tricks?
Basically there's no Facebook 'cause I don't want to do one! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat looking game! Ordered a copy of the rules.:-) I noticed your basing is economical while still looking good. As I always struggle to finish armies at 28mm I think I may try this out. May I please inquire as to what size bases you used please?
