Black powder!

Black Powder is a game for militarily inclined gentlemen
with straight backs, bristling beards and rheumy eyes
that have seen a thing or two. If tales of battle and glory in
days-gone-by stir nothing in your breast, if the roar of cannon
does not quicken the pulse and set a fire in the belly, then stop
reading forthwith. Ours is not an adventure to be embarked
upon by the faint hearted. Put down this book and be glad
that you have spared yourself the discomforting spectacle of
grown men attempting to relive the great conflicts of history
with armies of toy soldiers.
So heft your muskets and prepare for battle. The library or
billiard room will serve as our battlefield, or else some
similarly spacious and secluded refuge. Ensure that children
are safely put to bed and lie safely beyond earshot. Secure the
doors against the intrusion of womenfolk as yet unfamiliar
with the conventions of war. Ready your armies for the long
march to glory.
And finally, let us remember that the ideal accompaniment to
the journey may be found in good brandy, fine cigars, and the
companionship of like-minded enthusiasts.
