If you have ordered books from him in the past, you may have gotten an email from him a few days ago announcing his latest effort. If not, Michael's scenario books are extremely well researched. They are usually optimized for Shako 2, but are readily adaptable for Field of Battle, Black Powder, or any other set where a basic infantry unit is a battalion.
This book has 25 scenarios, many of which for actions I had never heard of. Some are skirmishes or actions that could have become more significant; the life of a Napoleonic Commander had much more t do with these than he few really big battles!
As you can see, there still are some big ones in here, too! I have all of Michael's prior scenario books, and they are outstanding in content and value. These projects are very much a labor of love for him! Michael also comments " I have more books coming, much sooner than it took to finish this one."
About this scenario book, Michael writes:
My price will continue to be $35 U.S. plus postage/envelope for U.S.-based customers. Respectfully, printing companies have raised their rates a few times since I last printed any books. I am holding the price, for now...
Cotton Jim's Flags will also be selling this book once I order copies to send to him. Cotton Jim's Flags - Miniature 15mm, 25mm, 40mm flags, Gaming Miniatures and Gaming Supplies I do not know what Jim will charge via his website.
I am just waiting for the arrival of a printer proof to validate that the physical copy looks fine before ordering sufficient paper copies for mailing. As before, if anyone chooses to buy from me directly I will send an email with the pdfs of the maps that are within the book. [That's a great plus for me personally!]
Let me know if you want to buy a copy please. I expect to be mailing the books in early December.
To order, email Michael Hopper: log1cal.mh AT gmail DOT com
