Another episode of wargaming months cannot say a lot other that I played Bruce Quarry rules in the late 70ties and had a 15 mm army in 1/40 ratio - a Prussian corps and a French one of 1813.

Been playing Napoleonic miniatures gaming since 1981. Wasn't the first rule set I got to play but not long after got Empire III. 43 years later at home still play E3. Though play sadly solo, I have a 1 1 foot 7 wide, 6 foot 7 deep for 15mm. I can set it up and leave it up for weeks at a time.
Have these last few years played a bunch of other rules, usually quite dumbed down to me. Only one that close to realistic is Carnage and Glory and seem to try and get a game at each convention.
