Basic Impetus 2 is coming
I share here to have more visbility. After and hard work (not finished yet as I'm in the middle of the layout of the English edition) Basic Impetus 2 is going to be released.
The Italian version is ready and has been shown in an Impetus competition the past week end.
It will be officially presented in a few days at Lucca Comics and Games, the biggest game show in Italy (this year on its 50th year, and it will be a 5 day show!!)
I plan to release the English version by November 20.
Now, Basic Impetus is not just a revised edition of a free intro game to Impetus. BI2 is a bridge toward Impetus 2. It shares some ideas and it takes a lot also from Baroque, starting from the measure expressed in base width.
A game lasts no more than 1 hour and half and in Italy it will adopted as the official set for the 2017 tournament circuit.
The book includes 340 army lists, each with some options and it is perfect for entry level, though enough detailed (and more "clean" than actual Impetus) to be well appreciated by the veteran Impetus player.
It also look graphically nice as you can see here (the sample pages are taken from the Italian edition)
The cost will be the same as Impetus or Baroque for the printed version and 4.99 USD for the digital version (that will be released together to the printed version). The digital version will be available through Wargames Vault and will come with 2 files, one will be the same as the printed version and one more "friendly-printer" (there will be still the pictures and the same structure but background and some graphic stuff will be changed)

Hi Frazer,
Might re-kindle interest in Central Scotland considering there were approximately 12 interested parties a couple of years ago. Will also be easier for new players to gain access to the game.
Looking forward to seeing Basic Impetus getting played in 2017
Cheers, Ross
