It came today....
A nice box with an apparently famous picture on it...
5 x 10 sided dice
Double sided errata
A
Standard Rules book of 20 pages (very refreshing)
And a 27 page
Special Rules book
2xdouble sided Gettysburg
Player Aid Cards2xdouble sided Pea Ridge
Player Aid Cards2xdouble sided
Miscellaneous Player Aid Cards3x
Counter Sheets - I honestly expected more given how big Gettysburg was - but this
is a Brigade level game
The
Gettysburg Map - one of the many reasons I decided to get this game - the map art is beautiful
It's a pit it's too big (again) for my folding game cover.
The
Pea Ridge MapThis game looks stunning. I'm so glad it's only a 20 page
Standard Rule book. It's decent paper stock and has lots of illustrations in it.
The
Special Rule book has 11 pages for
Gettysburg scenarios and 4 for
Pea Ridge scenarios, 1/2 a page of
Optional Rules, 5 pages of examples for
Retreat and
Combat, just over 1 page of
Game Terms, 2 pages for
Gideon Smith's Battle Report of Pea Ridge and 1 and 1/2 pages of
Designer NotesI was a bit suspicious that the rule book was only 20 pages and was thinking (and kind of dreading) the Special Rules book to have more rules - but it doesn't seem to have much more. It's more scenarios and information than other, more complicated rules.
I am very much looking forward to getting tore into this
