9, 2008 - Brother
Brian and son, Ben, play the Agincourt scenario
in their first game of BattleLore. This cool game
by Days
of Wonder uses the same command and control
mechanics as Command & Colors Ancients.
We
had a great game that went down to the wire with three
banners claimed on each side. Victory finally went to
the French with a last ditch effort charge of medium
infantry. The playability of this game makes for a qucik,
fun, challenging melee game that I much prefer to Warhammer
Fantasy. I wonder about the possibility of using these
rules with 15mm historical minitaures for different periods
of history?

Hail
Fellow Wargamers!
The Burgess
Brothers started miniature wargaming nearly three decades
ago. Over our lives, military service and careers have kept
us largely separated for 20 of those 30 years but we have
always made a point of wargaming whenever we could get together.
This site is in part an effort to rekindle that early gaming
enthusiasm and to share it with our wargaming friends.
For the
most part we started with old ESCI 1/72 scale ancients glued
on strips of cardboard using very simple homegrown rules.
From there we expanded into 15mm & 25mm metal collections
from various periods. We were on board with the initial introduction
of Warhammer 40K and came to enjoy other GW games, especially
Warmaster. Now that Warhammer Historicals is publishing Ancient
Warmaster, we find ourselves returning to our roots with
Ancient Wargaming. The 10mm miniatures of Warmaster are well
suited to the constant moves of military life and the distances
we must travel to game with each other.
So, welcome
to a small part or our world and come back often as we continue
to expand this site with new ideas and future projects. Currently
Brother Tom is stationed at Ft Knox, KY and games in the
Louisville, KY area while Brother Brian is at Quantico, VA
and games in N.Va area.
