Well certainly not written up. I have been too distracted by other things such as getting ready for Huzzah and that is not likely to change. I do have a page for current rules links & downloads but its so badly out of date that I may take it down until the fall. I've also discovered that I rather need to go back through some 1200 blog posts to remove links to obsolete rules that aren't or shouldn't be available.<br /><br />For the next couple of months I will be focused primarily on writing up and playing the 20th anniversary edition of With MacDuff to the Frontier. Hopefully by Fall I'll get it all organized and not be ambushed and thrown off track again!<br /><br />Too bad you didn't see Dick. I hope he is doing well.<br /><br /><br /><br />Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839601747923375105.post-66011692577773897022017-05-30T01:54:50.817-03:002017-05-30T01:54:50.817-03:00Hi Ross,

Figuring out how to find the most recent versions is confusing. Perhaps you could put links to the right of the articles under: Links to special features & my other blogs.<br /><br />I was hoping to see Dick Larson at this year's "Enfilade" convention, so that I could say "hello" for you. Alas, he was not there on the day I attended.<br /><br />Keep up the good work (good fun?)!<br /><br />Captain NolanCaptain Nolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12258683012806342747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839601747923375105.post-64951562805496433272017-03-17T15:13:29.976-03:002017-03-17T15:13:29.976-03:00The club is great and a lovely bunch, but very ser...The club is great and a lovely bunch, but very serious about their wargaming, history, uniforms, rules and accuracy.

Being used to 50% from elsewhere abd having already read the Sudden Death version, I doubt that I did more than glance at the standard rule.

I've had a go at it over several years and soon very much looking forward to devising a set of 15mm Rules for Middle Earth fantasy battles. I do like One-Page rules - and this is what I'll aim for.
