Ancient and Medieval Wargaming by Neil Thomas is the latest addition to my rules collection and I am very pleased with it.
I have had several good games with these rules over the last few weeks. The rules have nice straightforward mechanics and are very easy to play. I have tweaked them a little for my own take on some aspects of ancient warfare but nothing too drastic.
The book is a good read and the biggest problem for me is that I would like to try all of the armies featured in it. I am even considering using cardboard counters for the Biblical, Dark Age and Medieval units as there is no way to model all of the armies.
All in all I have found Ancient and Medieval Wargaming a very inspiring book.
Happy days!.
I've been resisting buying these so far...I have too many rule sets as it is, but I do like a simple system.
