Call it Mt. St. Jean -- no one else does.

[sweeteye]

Yes...Mont St Jean is a very relevant title.[X(] 1815 : Mont St Jean

[sweeteye]

Here is the first finished template for the table top counters. These counters are for German minor country units...

Somebody did once:)

La Bataille de Mont St.Jean by Clash of Arms. (Out of print now)

Sweeteye,

I'd really be interested in a copy of this. Please PM me. I love that it's done with NATO symbology like a wargame should.

Thanks, Nate

Hi Nate....I can most certainly can set you up with a copy... I do have much work left to do in order to have everything set up for printing. Have many counters to make yet for the templates.....a good weeks worth of work most likely.Also have to write out the rulebook.Not sure how I am going to have the map printed..I want to make it nice....would like to keep the map as one piece...The one I had made for myself I had printed on vinyl paper...lays out flat even after being rolled into scroll.Also spill resistant.Was expensive though.. $ 43.00 for one copy...Counters will be a reasonable cost to make. I will PM you as I get more information on printing cost...

Really do not know what to call the game...any ideas will be considered.[;)]

How 'bout:

1815: Wellington gives Bony the Boot!

[warspite1]

Not impressed then? [:D]

[sweeteye]

I was thinking more along the lines of 1815 : WATERBOO
to coincide with a Halloween release.

[sweeteye]

Here are the British and German minor units....

[sweeteye]

Here are the finished French counters plus a look at the Dutch Belgians after having to change their color.Different shades of red are printing out as basically the same color.Had to redraw the Anglo Allied counters again because I did not have the resolution set high enough on the first try and the counters were printing out with slightly blurred type.The Prussians are next plus the extra counters needed for playing...Disorganized and square counters....

[sweeteye]

And finally.......The Prussian counters....Ready to assemble the counters.Have to glue the printed sheets onto the foam board backing and then hand cut the counters after they have dried.Have no way of die cutting the counters right now.My dining room has turned into a little home game making factory.I believe I have the hardest part of the game making process finished.

I hope you don't mind constructive criticism sweeteye. Why green for the Prussians? Grey surely?

[nate25]

Looking good, Sweeteye.

PM me when you're ready to do the deal.

Nate

[sweeteye]

I do not mind constructive criticism at all... I welcome it...I have the Anglo Allied German minor counters in grey.Thought about putting the Prussians in black.....will experiment each time I make a printing....I chose green for the Prussians only because the Avalon Hill Waterloo game has them in green...I may end up doing like I did the Dutch Belgians....only have the counters in black with green symbol boxes in the center.

[Aurelian]

The Prussians wore blue though. Prussian blue and French blue were close enough that in the distance you couldn't tell them apart.
