Hi there,

I can see this working, and Lorenzo, you have my email if you would like an English language playtesting group!

Exciting news!

So, here some more details on this rulebook.

First the release date. I think it will be available between September 10 and 20.

The format. Similar to Smooth&Rifled (it shares most of the mechanics), so a Small format with 10-12 figures per side, a Medium format with 20 to 50 figures per side and a Large Format with 70+ figures per side and suitable for multiplayers games.

As said the rules will be based on S&R, but there are more emphasis on melee as not all weapons will be the same,so each with its own special rules.

The rule will include a kind of army builder (specific army lists will be released in the future) to allow you to create your force with the maximum of flexibility and 2-3 scenarios.

The rules cover from dark age (I would say from Arthurian age) to late medieval (WOTR&Co)

What about Bronze age? I need a ruleset for my Myceneans and my Trojan wall set...
Any chances for a chariot supplement?

there will be also an ancient set of rules. I preferred to keep them separately to speed up the Medieval version and to add more taste/details in the ancients (chariots are a perferct example on how an ancient skirmish set requires much more rules)

I'll be patient - I'm looking for a ruleset for my Trojan project for about 10 years by now so a bit more won't hurt...
Btw - if you need pictures for the ancient version... XD

we are close to the release of Lords&Servants.
At 99% they will be released on October 15.

Still on track to release this week?

Cheers

no, I have some delay, sorry. Last tests proved that the rules could still be improved. Also I'm adding to a generic Feudal list also Mongols and Wars of the Roses lists, as well as the point system, so players can easily create their own units.

I think I need 10 days more to complete the work.

Looking forward to it very much. I'd rather it was right and out a little later, than rushed and needing fixing.
Cheers

Nick
