DTPIW: A Big Chunk of Progress


Oh no - not another firing arc diagram!

It has been a busy but rewarding day working on Developing the Portable Ironclads Wargame. The final chapters (with the exception of the battle report - which has yet to be organised, let alone fought!) have been sent over to the Editor-in-Chief and for the first time in a while I can sense the finishing line being in sight!

Pictures are being added and once the new text has been incorporated and sent back to me for review - there are a few minor changes here and there - we can think about publishing which, all being well, will be during this half of the year.

The picture you see is a taster of what you can expect - no context though, that will spoil the surprise!

Glad to see more progress. Perhaps it will see publication in time for me to self gift it as a birthday present at the end of May? 😁

Intriguing stuff DC 🤔

Hi Mark,

Might be possible but there are a lot of moving parts to get in synch first! Having said that I am looking to publish by the end of June at the latest.

All the best,

DC

Hi Jim,

In many ways DTPIW is more of a toolkit than anything else but it certainly broadens the way in which the game can be played.

All the best,

DC

Very interesting David.

Hi Jim,

It is quite straightforward to interpret - more so than the two hex version!

All the best,

DC
