Update

Friday saw us finishing the late medieval game-

French knights have killed their Burgundian opponents thanks to a lucky dice throw.

French archers pour a withering arrow storm into opposition Guild pikemen and then get stuck in with hand to hand.

The Burgundian Commander and his men slog it out with the Franc archers whilst an organ gun provides support 

The last of the Guild pikemen prior to their demise , demoralisation is just around the corner.

The Burgundians lose more men and become demoralised, their commander admits defeat. An enjoyable game and unusually a win for us.

I had rebased my Irish for dbm from their previous 60mm square bases. They were never out of the box so  having just finished the Reivers and opponents I decided to rebase/ repaint/ touch up the Irish to become a potential opponent. Here they are soaking off their current bases.

Mounted on 2p sized plastic bases.

The Reivers/ townsfolk etc arrayed and with banner added , ready to serve in Ireland…

Based , textured paint applied and ready for final painting prior to varnishing…

I also wondered if the Elizabethan fellows could serve in the New World and looked out this book for inspiration-

So at some point I could add some  Powhatan opponents to allow even more gaming potential. The figure basing/ finishing has gone really well. Now thinking of rules, Lion Rampant, Songs of blades variant or probably some rules like those used by Tidders, we shall see…
