John D Salt let me know today that his creation of the 'missing link' in the WRG WW2 company to battalion-level rules has been published on Lulu today. Regular readers of this blog will recall that I had the good fortune to assist with some of the playtesting of this set during 2022 and 2023. I got lots of questions/comments on various forums and on the blog asking when this might be published, so great to see it finally in print! I do recommend it, it seems to me both a faithful representation of the WRG-thinking of the time after 4-5 years of experience with their first WW2 and Modern sets, as well as introducing some minor but useful clean ups to the equipment and the artillery and anti-aircraft mechanics. It is a little more complicated than the original first edition 1925-1950 ruleset, but less complicated than the late 80s 2nd edition. I will do a full review and some more games as soon as my copy arrives!

Heretical Gaming is my blog about my gaming life, featuring small skirmishes and big battles from many historical periods (and some in the mythic past or the far future too). The focus is on battle reports using a wide variety of rules, with the occasional rules review, book review and odd musing about the gaming and history. Most of the battles use 6mm-sized figures and vehicles, but occasionally 15mm and 28mm figures appear too.
