How many of you guys remember the Generals Compendium?
Super cool WFB suplement released (mostly) by the US studio in 2003.
Best suplement IMHO for fantasy yet!!

Anyone have any fun stories of games involving the best part of the Compendium -- The Naval battles stuff??

Our best game included two Empire boats and broadside action culminating in a daring boarding action performed by the last 6 models..a few handgunners and some spearmen. They died horribly to a bunch of Free Company but it was a blast!!

Yep. I still have mine. One of the scenarios was the shortest game I've ever had. I don't have the book with me but the scenario was about stopping a general from reaching one end of the board to the other. Trouble is it didn't factor in a general being mounted on a great eagle. Top of turn 2 game over.
