Welcome to Anschluss Wargames

Here at Anschluss Wargames we are committed to providing the best products for World War 2 wargamers.

To this end we are proud to present our company to Battalion wargames rules... ‘The War on the Ground’

These are at 1:1 scale for 10mm, 12mm and 1/144 scale. We believe these rules offer the most realistic combat experience available on table.
Use the correct tactics... you will be rewarded but get it wrong and well.... you can guess the rest!

This book includes the core rule set and five scenarios, covering June to September 1944.
The main armour types are here, as are the infantry types. All you need for (British, Wehrmacht, Fallschirmjagers and Americans) late war combat in Western Europe.

We also provide you with the opportunity to purchase accessories... Both for games - Templates for artillery and bespoke counters as well as scale trees, flock and vegetation for your bases.
Our ranges will be expanding so sign up for updates and news.

Review of the rules

Excellent review of ‘The War on the Ground’ rules in the latest edition of ‘Wargames, Soldiers and Strategy magazine!

 

Just some of the comments made by the reviewer.

 

‘...arguably the best WW2 rules I have come across’

 

‘... anyone who wants their WW2 games to have a real period feel should try these rules.’

 

‘... an unknown daVinci masterpiece of WW2 gaming.’

 

‘... action looks and feels ‘right’. This is in contrast with many battalion-level rules that end up feeling like a platoon-level skirmish.’

 

He does make comment that these rules are not for a newcomer, and he is right. His comments about making things more clear are also accurate, so a FaQ has been added to this website to clear queries up. 

 

We do listen to constructive criticism! 😊

Our new title, the first in a large series, is:

This is an updated version for the 21st Century of the famous Napoleonic Uniform guides from W.J. Rawkins.

Fully edited, updated and with four pages of colour illustrations, and many supporting illustrations. This book provides an affordable and incredibly detailed reference point for anyone interested in the Saxon Army of the Napoleonic Wars, from its rebirth after the fall of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806 and the defeats of Prussia, and its ally Saxony at the battles of Jena and Auerstadt, Saxony attached its fortunes to Napoleon and France. Present at most of the major actions of the subsequent years, and part of the Invasion of Russia in 1812, it was only on the third day of the Battle of the Nations... Leipzig, in 1813 when the army defected to the Allies.

From 1810 the Saxon uniform aped that of France, so for modellers and wargamers, the Saxon Army is a prime example of the ‘unusual’ that is always popular.

Every branch of the Saxon Army from 1806-1814 is covered in great detail, with charts and illustrations, and will provide great value to the purchaser.
