The system's called "Three Plains", so I doubt he's a shill. Or, if he is, he's a poor one. ;)

That said: Nope. Can't say I've tried it.

That explains the lack of google results. No worries though, I did learn something about common crop rotation practices in Europe during the Middle Ages.

As for the schill part, it's hard to say... an identical post was made today over on dakkadakka by the same name (his first and only post there, as well).

Some description of the game by the designer

Also, I apparently missed the chance to DL the review copy. Curses!

If you wait a week or two, some reviews should be up on BGG (the link I posted).

Are you sure that site isn't just a joke? ...it looks...well... 36px bold red veranda and a bright red money back guarantee rosette? :-X

Seem to remember that there are plenty of free sites for paper/card wargaming anyway?

The line between "misguided enthusiast" and "fake" is often pretty thin.

Look a lot more competent than writing it off of-handedly as a fake.
And including cut-out armies has an appeal all by itself.

Thanks for the catch.

This system would work well if it used the same plasticard printing that Pirates of the Spanish Main used.
