BattleCry Ancients
Ancients BattleCry is a set of rules combines the Battle Cry and Ancients board game rules. The author writes
The rules are basically a combination of Avalon Hill’s American Civil War game Battle Cry designed byRichard Borg and One Small Step’s ANCIENTS designed by William L. Blanks, along with ideas of my own and from fans of both of these games. Both games use a hex based terrain system for deployment and movement. Battle Cry offers a combat mechanism that does not require charts or accounting and utilizes attrition. Battle Cry also offered a command and activation system that allows for challenging and unpredictable tactics. ANCIENTS provided an outstanding unit description and some of the best scenario setups I have ever seen. By combining these, I felt I could make a game that dealt with ancient battles that was, all though abstract in nature, challenging and above all, very fun.

Flat Pack Buildings
Terrain Buildings
Mercerius Atticus has created some very impressive flat buildings. This isn’t a how-to, per se, but the idea is worth passing on. These would be especially useful on the edges of a game.
