I think I will see if the terrain tiles are interchangeable between Memoir 44, Battle Cry, and Battlelore.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-29591307030423029322018-02-06T06:47:49.441-08:002018-02-06T06:47:49.441-08:00John my eye-sight has let me down again!

They come with different terrain hexes that you can arrange to set up different scenarios. As the Memoir '44 game board is the same size as Battle Cry without the name of the game being printed in the middle of the board, I can use that board for future games.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-2624174656701611702018-02-05T04:45:45.461-08:002018-02-05T04:45:45.461-08:00I've never played Battlecry but it looks good ...I've never played Battlecry but it looks good the way you're playing it! It is a shame they put the lettering on the board. I guess you could cut some card hexes the same size as those on the board and make some different scenery to change the scenario?Maudlin Jack Tarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02812453753286494021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-2819215104731067252018-02-05T02:27:16.217-08:002018-02-05T02:27:16.217-08:00It was a shame that I hadn't use the newest re...It was a shame that I hadn't use the newest recruits more. I am thinking of using the Richard Borg boards more. I don't care for the large "Battle Cry" in the middle of the board. I will probably use the Memoir '44 board in the future.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-45730137852691484912018-02-05T02:23:12.164-08:002018-02-05T02:23:12.164-08:00I like the looks of H&R figures, and they look...I like the looks of H&R figures, and they look great in massed formations. I agree with you though. Unless I was only going to use them and nothing else, then maybe I would purchase them. The few I do have I found on Ebay at a really cheap price.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-90397320918992239382018-02-04T23:03:14.398-08:002018-02-04T23:03:14.398-08:00John

I do have some Napoleonics which I based, with 4 based units, each base having 5 figures. The price of the figures stopped me from buying them, along with the painting of said figures.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-36571364182900163912018-02-04T14:13:07.484-08:002018-02-04T14:13:07.484-08:00I've recently run Battle Cry with 6mm Heroics ...I've recently run Battle Cry with 6mm Heroics & Ros figures. Originally I used one base for one Battle Cry figure, but that made the hexes look a bit full (I use 20mm square bases). Two bases looks nice - that gives 16 infantry, 6 cavalry and 2 guns to each unit, and I can mark hits with small stones. It also leaves room for proper terrain if I feel like going down that particular route.Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.com
