Introduction :
These
free American Civil Wargame rules are part of the ' Age of Musket'
series which covers the era of the Musket from 1690 to 1866 .
The Kepi and Musket 1961 - 1866 rules cover the battles of the American
Civil War on land.
A war that saw some of the bloodiest battles fought by Americans in
the modern era .
The American Civil War saw the end of the musket used in battle with
the introduction of more modern weapons such as the
Spencer Carbine and the Martini Henry rifle .
The Artillery arm also saw a introduction of modern weapons that
were to prove at times deadly on the battlefield .
With the introduction of these more lethal and accurate weapons more
modern tactics were used .
The
rules are intended to be quick and easy to use , with minimal die
rolling and sensible morale and casualty result's .
The rules can also be used for large and modest sized games and for
figures of all scales .
These rules have been play tested by the Harlow Wargames Club and
by myself to test different
scenario's to see how they resolve .
The rules are PDF format, ( aprox. 100kb ) for ease of printing and
accessability. If you do not have Adobe
Acrobat reader visit Adobe
for
the latest reader.
It is recommended that the rules be used in their present form to
reflect the battles of the period .
Happy wargaming .
