Having made a comment about randomness in my Saturday post, I spent a fair amount of time yesterday thinking about it and thinking about various comments until it hit me that I was way off track.
The problem wasn't a lack of randomness and fun, (
I'm not really keen on either of those) but once mentioned that stuck with me. The actual problem would be better summed up as being a shortage of the important decision points that keep my brain engaged along with a lack of period flavour.

So I spent more time yesterday and today revisiting relevant historical actions, various old rules and some old games while thinking about what I do like based on experience. I was soon reminded of how much I enjoyed the
Battle of Weeburg in February and where I had been headed.
So, I jotted down some outline rules, started to push some figures about and roll some dice. Much better.

Alas, after a good start, time was up! Duty called so the game halted but will resume another day.
