Test of Resolve: First Impressions

[@brianbetteridge8364]

thank you nice review , I am also looking at getting into WOR in 6mm ( living fairly close to Bosworth WOR always kinda interested me ) I play 6mm GOT using Dragon Rampant but need something else for WOR , maybe TOR but i am not a big lover of a lot of counters on the table

Beautiful painting, presentation and music… great work

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Thank you

[@rousell68]

The rules do sound like they'll be fun to play. Looking forward to our first bash in the shed!

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Indeed. Mind you, it'll stretch the rules to breaking point when I get my whole order of battle on the table. 😆

[@thomaschase7097]

Nice looking minis! Thank you for sharing!

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Thanks

Spot on mate, I have played the rules a lot and you hit it on the head “entertainly frustrating” it works very well and gets a very good result and predominantly a historical result. Not played it solo though. Already started to paint markers for the companies but not though about the large battle counter numbers but two disks would do the job! Cheers Matt

I found a number tracker from Charlie Foxtrot Models. It's MDF, two dials (so counts up to 99) and there are 8 in the pack for £10.75 . I'm waiting on delivery but I think they will do the job just right.

[@WargamingHistory]

@@MiniatureAdventuresTV that sounds the business Lee

[@roymartin8507]

Looks like you hit on a great ruleset here Lee. I have to say that your figs have come out brilliantly - a lovely job there 👍🙂

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Thank you 😊

[@oldschoolfrp2326]

Thanks for the look into this one; I’ve heard mostly good things from everyone who has tried ToR

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Yeh, there have been a few good reviews of it. I quite enjoyed the card-driven unpredictable nature of the play. It certainly wasn't boring!

[@paintingpanzers]

This looks very interesting and the models are superb ❤

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Thank you. And yes, they seem like a good set of rules that do exactly what I want.

[@MrLardness]

Beautiful painting & basing

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Thanks. I'm happy with how they look.

[@TheHookahSmokingCaterpillar]

Thanks for the review. An interesting take on 'friction' from the rules.

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

IGOUGO can be a little bit artificial. This card driven system felt much more interesting because it was more chaotic and unpredictable. You could feel the ebb and flow of the battle as the advantage shifted from one side to another.

I you like this you would love Field of Battle or Battle Command

[@packersfanforlife7903]

Love the Wars of the Roses period. Your miniatures look fantastic and thank you for this review. This review has convinced me to get these rules. I must ask, where did you get the flags. I love the fact you have the colors and the company flags all matching. Not seen that for 6mm scale for WotR?

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Scans of flags from some of the many Lance & Longbow Society books on the period. I printed them on a laser printer (adjusted to the size I wanted), cut them out and varnished them using Windsor & Newton spray gloss. That doesn't melt the ink and spraying rather than brushing also means the ink doesn't smear. The flags can be mat varnished later once the initial spray varnish has dried. I did a video on this, hope it is helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXLcoaWVoruLZtUsi=5vQMdIHkZpIcg9dp

[@sumerandaccad]

Very succinct report. But, I thought you were heading for Nevermind the Billhooks.

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

I've been looking at lots of different rulesets, but I like the simplicity of ToR.

[@MedievalWargamer]

Great review!

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@JackSargePainting]

Excellent video Lee. How did you get that subtle music track under your narration? It sounded really good.

[@MiniatureAdventuresTV]

I can add music as well as record a voiceover as a separate track. Then adjust the volume so it's not too distracting. Windows Movie Maker is basic, but it does the job and is easy to use.
