And so it starts... Alortigis, chief of the ______i, has fallen upon his enemies, the ______i, and defeated them in a mighty battle.

| Forces advance. |
 |
| Contact is made. |
 |
| Alortigis's men claim their first victory. |
 |
| The battle is even on the left... |
 |
| ...or is until the caetrati commit at the right time to swing the fight. |
 |
| Victory! Of the enemy, only the cavalry and the skirmishers escape. |
It remains to be seen how the vanquished will react to this defeat, but if they refuse to accept Alortigis as overlord they will likely see their homes dismantled, their crops burnt, and their wives and children sold into slavery.
We may be hearing more of this fellow...
Looks interesting! Glad to see you getting some use out of the chits.
ReplyDeleteChits are great, Simon. I will use them for the purpose they are intended as well (that's part of the reason why I got did a second board...)!
DeleteYou banged that terrain out quick. I am suitably impressed!
ReplyDeleteCheers John. Quick and nasty, I think!
DeleteHowever you did it the boards ended up looking great.
ReplyDeleteThanks Aaron. They could be better, but sometimes you just have to start playing and not worry!
DeleteSo did the battle take one hour or less? It sure seems that Alortigis made short work of his opponents.
ReplyDeleteYep, ten turns or so took about 30 minutes. Very quick and quite good fun.
DeleteLol, it's the Mankini I'd be worried about ;-)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun set of rules for a quick game. Nicely done terrain
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill - it is a surprisingly enjoyable set of rules considering how basic the whole thing is.
