The adventures of Arthur Rawdon the Cock of the North
« on: March 08, 2018, 01:00:14 PM »
I had the chance to take part in a pre-release game of Beneath the Lily Banners 3, run by Clarence Harrison of Quindia Studios.
What follows is my comic report, with links to Clarence's post which go into greater detail about the rules, and observations.  This comic covers all the ACTION. 

This tale is told from the viewpoint of Arthur Rawdon also known as the Cock of the NOrth, a rowdy gardener if you are a student of history.  Stay tuned for pt. 2 and do check out the link for the rest of the story.  ;)

Thanks guys.  I hope to do many more, once I get my own collection painted.  I've got the BLB bug for sure.

Finally got some paint on the minis with 2 units of Horse complete!  1st up is Hugh Magill as a personality leading his own Squadron, then we have Rawdon's 3rd Squadron waiting in reserve with pistols drawn.  Next up will be Rawdon leading his 1st and 2nd squadrons on the charge!
