HIS MAJESTY'S BRITTANIC ARMY IN GERMANY DURING THE SEVEN YEARS WAR

Just to update interested parties on the re-print of ‘HIS MAJESTY'S BRITTANIC
ARMY IN GERMANY DURING THE SEVEN YEARS WAR’ by Sir Reginald Savory,
the situation is that we have secured the right to publish and have had one quote from a UK publisher that would put the book out for sale at £60 plus p/p. We are currently trying to get other quotes in an attempt, if at all possible, to bring the cost down to closer to the £50 I mentioned in my last posting on the subject. Although the spec remains largely the same as the 1980 re-print we are adding extra colour maps to the back of the book as well as a dustcover.

We are going ahead and we hope to be able to publish in the Spring or early summer of this year.

  1. That's really good news. I was almost swaying towards painting some Prussians to face my French but it looks like His Majesty may win!

  4. I've wanted a copy of this ever since I read it (at Herr Alte Fritz's urging) when I first started SYW gaming 10 years ago.

    Hurrah! for going to this effort.

  8. Nigel, Going back to an earlier post, you mentioned a range of German-made card buildings. I have had a look at the site but my German is non-existent. Which scale of building did you find suited your figures? Regards, Iain.
