Never mind the Billhooks

 I have all ways fancied gaming the War of the Roses ,loads of blokes walking round in plate armour thumping each other with hammers in all kinds of weather ,changing sides at the drop of a helmet ,kings and queens changing places quicker than premier league football managers ,all great fun but never dipped my toes ,until the freebie rules Never Mind the Billhooks .They came free with Wargames Illustrated who have taken them on board with a vengence ,all sorts of articles are appearing and the support on the WI website is fantastic.The rules booklet is about 30 pages which includes afew pages of cards and tokens ( you can buy upmarket versions of these) The rules seem pretty staright forward with things being determined by a small deck of cards ,you need a small army to start with about 100 or so figures and when you take into account the Perry plastic box sets this is a pretty cheap army .I ahve ordered some of the said Perry box sets and the proper tokens and cards ,this will be my project for next year .
