An Introduction To Rapid Fire Reloaded Wargame Rules 

Cheers! Yes they have been my constant wargame companions since they were launched!

Brilliant. I hope that you enjoy using them as much as I do!

Cheers, thanks for that!

Oh that’s kind of you. The rules are great fun. All the best

Ha ha! Yes the pigeons always pop out when they see the camera., cheers and thanks

Cheers for that - much appreciated!

It’s a learning curve!

Very kind of you Matthew!

@@KenHanning57 I really do enjoy your videos. I must admit i too like large scale wargames, although they are a solitary affair for me these days. Fortunately I have accumulated enough forces over the years to oppose each other on the table. I look forward to your next production!

@@gunner678 Hi Matthew, most of my games are solo, but sometimes with input via video call from a good Wargames chum down south in England. But I do attend my nearest club, about half an hour away, every couple of months. Thanks for your kind remarks re the videos, a bit of a learning curve still on the editing front, but they are great fun to make! Cheers, Ken.

@@KenHanning57 you are welcome. I have promised to get another video out myself, but I never seem to get round to it. I should really, but it's all a bit of a mystery to me. The only wargames video I have ever 'produced' was a very quick rejoinder to a comment, but that was done quickly on my tablet (and it shows). I do have a camera (bought for this purpose ), but I've never used it. Do you use an editing software? I have so many projects on the go and it's about time I reciprocated in response to the many excellent videos out there. Still thanks for the reply. I now live in south West france, and unfortunately there are no clubs near to me. That said, a friend of mine here is interested in setting up a little 'wargames' museum with me, so something may come from that (not that I'm averse to solo games of course). Cheers.

@@gunner678 that sounds interesting. I use Movavi editing software, very easy to use. There are a few France based wargamers on the “friends who like rapid fire WW2 Wargames rules” Facebook group. All the best. Ken

Ah thank you very much, very kind of you!

Gosh I remember the Cambrian to Sinai rules, and indeed the old WRG rules that covered “ modern “ warfare up to the 1950s! As well! I’m a fan of many rule sets, but I have no issues with simplified that systems that work more easily and quickly. I’d encourage you to try the RF Reloaded set, for yourself,, see what you think, and don’t give up on other rules, I have a vast supply of old rules that are like old friends!

The emphasis is not 44/45 see the new Blitzkrieg France and early Russian front books and all the desert books and PDFs out there

It’s tremendous fun Norm. Thank you so much for watching old boy! Ken

@@KenHanning57 Have gone on to buy the 'extra' booklet and the Canadians in Normandy booklet ... very good, thank you.

@@norm977 ah brilliant, very glad you like them! All the best, Ken

Yes they would. In fact you could probably use the scenario books with almost any rules set.

Hello and good evening, I rather suspect that most of us play 20mm (1/72) but I also have chums who play these rules with 15mm and 6mm, simply amending ranges movement etc.

Hello! I’m a member at Kirriemuir so we may well meet your Dad. The scale is 20mm (1/72) Thanks for getting in touch!

@@KenHanning57 Fantastic, he has been playing with Dale from the club so I’m sure you will cross paths soon!

Great rules, alwAys good fun!

Reloaded is slowly but surely taking over the old sets. All our playtesting is now done with RFR.

Reloaded is the future and the present. You won’t need either of the old rule sets, and you can use reloaded with all of the old and current scenario books. It’s so simple, quick, and effective, it’s really jolly good!

Hi Alistair, I’m near Coupar Angus and Blairgowrie! Most of the scenarios for rapid fire are designed for 6x4 or 7x5 tables, I just like doing games in what we used to call ( in the days of Peter Gilder) the “ Grand Manner”. Some of my wargaming pals call it showing off! Good to hear from you! Ken

No, you probably need rapid fire reloaded and rapid fire reloaded extra , which holds the amphibious, air assault and other more specialised rules.

Hello! No I do ACW, in fact a big first bull run game planned for the summer, and I do ancients. Using friends collections I also do AWI and Napoleonic. That said, rapid fire WW2 is my first love! Many thanks for watching, very kind of you ! Ken

@@KenHanning57 what scale do u do acw as I have started 28mm acw

kan du prata engelska, i så fall kan vi prova ett spel via videosamtal senare under året

@@KenHanning57 yes i can speak english. I wrote in Swedish so that if someone in Sweden and have an interest in this like me watched this youtube video could contact me. But yes your suggestion sounds fun, it would be fun to try.

@@Sovjetski- ah that makes sense! I’m afraid I used google translate!! I hope that someone else in Sweden picks up your post, probably worth posting on the Facebook group “ friends who like rapid fire WW2 wargame rules” Ken

@@KenHanning57 Yes, I speak better English than I write :) but I liked the idea of trying to play via video link. better than no game at all. Have a good day sir and thanks for your replies
