Anyone seen it yet, only just found out about it and I would like to know how much us GNW and how much the Eastern wars, the bit I am actually interested in!

I was going to put my name down to get a copy hot off the press, but the p&p was eyewatering. I'll get a copy at a show because I'm sure it will be rather splendid as a book even if I've not played BLB for a long time.

Here's the ToC. Looks like exactly what I need for GNW and other eastern conflicts.

Local club went all moist over BTLB and we ended up playing it precisely once.

BLB the first was a bit of a disappointment. I never played version two.

I have to admit, not after it for blb, but for the info on eastern stuff.

Haven't played a lot of BLB, but that which I have done was fun. Don't know the period well enough to comment on its historical accuracy but it gives a decent game.

And you have to respect a bloke who goes into print to trash his own historical research...in this case regarding Dragoons.
