Firelock Games has set up pre-orders for their new set of rules, Blood & Steel. Dive into Victorian Age Combat throughout a number of wars that took place between 1837 and 1901.

To help you get started, Firelock has put together two bundles that offer up the rulebook for Blood & Steel plus a set of plastic miniatures from Perry Miniatures. For example, the Anglo-Zulu War Bundle comes with a set of British Infantry and obviously, some Zulus!
You can also dive into the US Civil War if you so desire with a second bundle.

This comes with the rulebook as before plus a set of Union and Confederate Infantry. You get more than enough to get you started as the Perrys pack all manner of content onto their sprues!
If you're interested in learning more about Blood & Steel then it's well worth diving into our interview with the Firelock Games team here...

If you already have a bunch of miniatures set aside for Blood & Steel, you can also pick up the rulebook separately. It's based on the mechanics of Blood & Plunder and Blood & Valor but with plenty of tweaks to match the settings and time period.
It contains rules for playing out the 2nd Seminole War, Mexican American War, US Civil War, 2nd Taranaki War, Anglo-Zulu War and Spanish American War. It allows you to dive into conflicts from all over the world. I am most tempted by the idea of playing as the Māori!
Are you going to be checking Blood & Steel out?

Great to see Firelock continuing to partner up for miniature bundles and an excellent choice with the Perrys, fantastic value kits and the bundles are good value if you’re in the US.
However, for anyone not in the US these are probably cheaper to pick up locally as firelock has some crazy overseas shipping costs.
Already have my pre-order in for the PDF and a hard copy from my a UK stockist.
ZULU’s.
Already ordered and can’t wait! ??
