This weeks game was right up my street and had me quite excited as we were to play a Late Medieval game. If any of you remember my La Journee blog you will know of my love of all things Late Medieval. Sadly/stupidly I closed the blog a number of years back...... well, you live and you learn.....
Jim was kind enough to bring in the bulk of his Late Medieval collection as we were planning on playing a run through of a battle that we have planned to replay later in the year for the Society of Ancients, Battle Day in the North. After a wee bit of shuffling and sorting of troops we managed to get the units sorted into something more akin to what they might look like on the day.
I'm not really at liberty to describe the battle and definitely not at liberty to tell you which battle it is we were refighting; all that will be revealed at the event next year, which I think it taking place in April(?).
Jim's collection looked fantastic and it would be a shame not to show the game off so here's a selection of images for your perusal.
The rules of choice, perhaps unsurprisingly for regular readers, were WAB which handled the battle very well.























Lovely job indeed loads great looking minis well done.
ReplyDeleteJim's collection look quite grand and it was a pleasure to witness the game. And Gm it a bit.
DeleteWonderful battle report. have to admit not sure how knowing the actual historical event would matter - but looked great.
