Off the painting table

Daughter number two and I went to meet daughter number three’s new puppy. Rosa is a great wee soul , not to mention her alien friend.

The mounted knights were finished and felt like an outing on the battlefield, l was happy to oblige.

Using these rules with distances halved for the game.

  3. Dogs are great. Good company and get you out of the house for excercise. Very tying though.

  6. How are those rules? They’ve piqued my
    Interest several times, but I’ve never taken the plunge!

  7. Thanks for sharing Alan, for Mardigan my penny worth- I have many rulesets and was initially reluctant about them when they came out but became a swift convert. These rules are great fun and have a very sound base to them in that you have a basic set of mechanics that work. Then you have army specific rules and army lists (no points here) for matching historical foes with limited choice. This all contains what is allowed. And means you can get a game on quickly and the minimal rules ease play too. And the research is there as well with each book he writes including his thoughts on design. I have his 19th century book as well one hour Wargames plus his introduction to wargaming for its pike and shot rules!
