Western: Battles in the Old West 1830-85

Game ID: GID0386254
Collection Status
Description

Western rules that cover the battles of the Old West.

These replace the 1992 Hey you in the Jail set. We usually update rules after about 10 years.
These rules are designed for games wherein the figures operate in groups. They are not a skirmish set .

WESTERN is an historical game (the word "faction" is not used)
There are ten force options (Mexicans, Plains Indians, townsfolk, posse, Gunmen, army, workers, cattlemen....).

A typical force in 15mm would use 100 figures (about 50 in 25mm) put into 5 groups.
5 x 3 table.
All mechanisms uses the table grid (6 inch squares for 15mm, 8" for 25mm etc).

The rules will use the usual wire bound "lay flat" PP style.
The signature PP grid system is also used. Western is full of new ideas and elegant processes.

As usual the play sheets and battle sheet swill be "down loadable" free of charge on the PP website.
