The LGTSA Medieval Miniatures rules

[increment]

Those of you interested in the original LGTSA medieval rules that preceded Chainmail might be interested in the most recent post on my blog, which provides scans from the earliest published version of the rules (April 1970 in Panzerfaust), as well as a scan from Domesday Book #5.

Cool, thanks! Interesting to see that the combat tables remained unchanged from Gygax's first circulation of the rules. Light Foot are certainly fast in that version (12/18) and similarly Light Horse have double the charge movement available later (24/36). Makes sense of why Armoured Foot have no charge bonus.

Light Foot: 12/18
Heavy Foot: 9/12
Armoured Foot: 6/6
Light Horse: 24/36
Medium Horse: 18/24
Heavy Horse: 12/18

Also intriguing to see that "heavy horse" is interchangeable with "knights" in the first table.
