There's not a lot of information out on these rules yet so I'll post what information is available from the listing below. Most gamers I've spoken with get a little hesitant to purchase a set of rules when they're both offered as a pre-order as well as state either they're "Fast Play", or a "Card Driven" system. This is supposedly the New and Improved second version. Which then begs one to have to ask the question of "What was wrong with the previous version"? That being said I'll have to get a copy!!!
The latest set of rules from Chris Peers' Ruga Ruga Publishing will be with us
next week.
Tremble ye Tyrants! is a set of rules for medium to large scale wargames set in
the last decade or so of the Napoleonic Wars, or roughly between 1805 and 1815.
This is the classic Napoleonic "Empire" period, including the great campaigns of
Austerlitz, Jena, Eylau and Friedland, Aspern and Wagram, as well as the
invasions of Spain and Russia, and the decisive allied victories at Leipzig and
Waterloo.
In addition to refighting these great battles, and the countless lesser ones of
the era, the rules are designed to be suitable for free-form campaigns,
hypothetical scenarios, and one-off competition style games using armies built
on a system of points values. Tabletop armies can represent a wide variety of
real life levels of organisation, from a division up to a full scale army.
Tremble ye Tyrants! is aimed at players who want a fast playing and enjoyable
game with a minimum of complex mechanisms, but which retains as much as possible
of the tactical flavour of the period, and makes large scale manoeuvres feasible
within the confines of an evening's game. Although designed mainly with 28mm
figures in mind, it is suitable for any scale and any size of game.
We have not only improved the quality of Tremble Ye Tyrants compared to previous
Ruga-Ruga books, we have managed to bring down the cover price to £10.00.
For all pre-orders placed, we are offering Tremble ye Tyrants post free
world-wide.http://northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=3882
