ISBN: 9780759122208 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In The Small Nation Solution, eminent anthropologist John H. Bodley argues that the contemporary global problems of poverty, conflict, and environmental degradation are problems of scale and power.

He spotlights successful small nations around the world as the best working models of sustainable sociocultural systems and shows how these diverse small nations can be the building blocks of a transformed global system that could save the world.

DBA 2.2 Simple Ancient and Medieval Wargaming Rules Including DBSA and DBA 1.0
ISBN: 9781291090185 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The aim of the rules was to provide the simplest possible set of wargaming rules that retained the feel and generalship of ancient and medieval warfare. The rules were about command decisions not the detail of combat.

Battles typically lasted less than an hour, allowing multiple games to be played in a single day. The DBA rules include the basic battle rules, campaign rules, suggested mini-campaigns, over three hundred army lists,...
