By Fire And Sword from Wargamer is going to be getting a new lease of life as Wargamer are planning to come to Kickstarter soon with the 2nd Edition of their rather epic Historical wargame.

The folks behind By Fire And Sword were quick to say that everything that you've used previously is going to be useable in the second edition of the game. So, if you already have all manner of miniatures from this game range then you'll be sorted when the new edition swings around.
"By Fire and Sword – a historical wargame is the name of a battle system developed by the Wargamer Company. We wanted to create a realistic, playable and dynamic wargame which recreates the 17th-century wars fought by the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth against Turkey, Muscovy, Sweden, Crimean Khanate and Cossacks."
The team are also putting together a series of videos explaining the changes that you'll find within the By Fire And Sword II rules. The first video is out talking about basing, unit sizes and the basics of gameplay.

More videos are planned and I would hope that the Kickstarter is going to offer up a chance to get your hands on the miniatures alongside the rules. Are you a By Fire And Sword fan that is eager to see this game return?

Nice.
I am a bit worried and thrilled at the same time. We play this game quite a bit at the club and to be honest I like it just the way it is!
This makes me wonder what they are changing and to what degree. I hope they don’t do a complete overhaul, but if they do, I hope it makes the game better than it already is.
Time will tell I guess, but in the meantime I will follow this very closely.
Fantastic news !!!
