Field of Glory™ is a wargaming rules system that uses model figures and terrain to recreate the great battles of the Ancient and Medieval world, written by some of the biggest names in the wargaming community, including the co-author of the popular DBM rules, Richard Bodley Scott.

Field of Glory™ allows players to use Wargames Factory miniatures to re-fight historical scenarios or create their own “what if” battles. It is being released in February 2008 along with two companion books, Rise of Rome and Storm of Arrows.

These books, which are the first of many, focus on specific time periods or geographical regions in the Ancient and Medieval world, giving historical overviews and comprehensive army lists for all of the major and minor powers.

Field of Glory™ is the first set of wargames rules that has been designed for and made available to a wide audience and will be available from traditional Hobby outlets to mass market booksellers. The game is set to revolutionize historical wargaming.

Hey!

Not sure how I missed this... very neat that you guys are getting into proper wargaming!  I had no idea there was a connection there, although I had seen some box art and thought it looked fantastic. If you ever want to send some product this way for a review at my blog, feel free!:)  Good luck with this!

Hi Ash,

FoG is a set of new wargaming rules, also note it will cover periods from the ancients to modern times. In fact a Napoleonic volume is close to release.

And if you like work of Lacedemon, here is a brand new series he was the main artist for, as usual his work is fantastic looking.

It is no coincidence Slitherine is into wargaming. The founders Iain and JD McNeil are both ex-world champions table top wargaming. JD is still chairman of the British Historical Games Society.
