Title: Trafalgar
Post by: marengo on April 28, 2009, 09:29:25 AM

Anyone bought this yet?
I hear it is based on the old MOW rules which can only be a good thing?

Am thinking of buying it but would really like to year and opinions first.

Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is Trafalgar? Its a gamebook? or a boardgame? is it based in Warmaster system? and what is MOW?

Trafalgar is a stand alone game by WH:

Man O'War was a GW game from the early 90s:

I haven't heard anything about the former being based on the later. The design articles WH had up on their site seemed to suggest that it was a new set of rules.

Thanks Dave,

Trafalgar seems as a worthable game.

Trafalgar has nothing common with Warmaster Historical topic.
Wrong forum ;)
