Hello All,

Still trying to catch-up on current rule fashions. While looking for more 15mm Napoleonic figures I stumbled across a battalion on 1/300 scale WW2 German infantry with a company of Italian infantry. I seem to recall using some Heroic & Ross rules for 1/300 scale WW2. Does anybody at the club do this scale period and if they do what rules do you use?

Thanks in advance.

BTW: Gary, the 28mm Napoleonic skirmish sounds interesting what rules do you use?

Alex

I've never played AOR or GDB but I started out playing Napoleonic with Bruce Quarries (spelling) black book and then drifted into Ancients using WRG. I've also done some 40K & Warhammer but don't currently have a force in any condition to fight.
