I was thinking about trying a different type of gaming expierence by
doing a vassal tournament. I was thinking about Manoevre or something
along that line. The games will be given two weeks to complete, which
should give plenty of time to complete the game. We would keep win/
loss records and post results, let me know what you think of this
idea.

I know how to play battlelore on there but not the play by email way.  Just live. 

 

We should probably play manoevre face to face before trying to slog through the rules over email.

Mike and I played Manoeuvre last night. He played the Russians and I
played the Ottomans.

My Cav was runnin' around but when they break they break hard. Mike's
Russians were still pretty tough after a hit and I was almost never
able to follow up. I got a ton of Regroups late in the game which
didn't help my already dead units. One five card hand I had was
[withdraw][withdraw][regroup][regroup][regroup] Mike skillfully
pushed his infantry up and eliminated several of my units getting the
auto victory by killing 5 units while I only killed 1 of his.

It's a fun little game and I like the Vassal implementation.
