Great North War and Italian Wars week 8

 Italian Wars - week 8

Only one scoring game was played this week and I've no pictures of this as I was late back. Fiorento attacked West Gallomagna and managed a win in the Stubborn Defence scenario. The other weas declared a draw as there was a misunderstanding over the scenario rules, so 1/2 a point each.  


Great North War

With the release of Beneath the Lilly Banners version 4 we played our first game under the new set. It is basically a tidying-up of version 3 with rule consolidated from the various supplements. It plays smoothly with a few errors in the play sheet we quickly spotted. 

Danes (aka Brits) in the village

The rules contain a slow-grow campaign and so we played the last scenario of that, reset to the Great North War. I played the Swedes vs Nigel's Russian and Richards Brits acting as Danish allies.

The Swedes has the better of the cavalry battel on the flanks but struggled in the centre against Danish units emplaced in the village.

An honourable draw was declared. With us having 3 copies of the rules a  future campaign beckons once I've painted some more horse.
