TYW Game/Lutzen 1632
« on: November 24, 2018, 04:48:21 PM »
Here of some shots of a game played last weekend. Unfortunately mainly from the start as we forgot to take more once the game got going. The game was a play test of a Lutzen 1632 scenario with the Twilight of Divine Right rules.

Wow, looks great.  Love the fortified town, who makes the battlements?
Cheers

Looks Great! Who won?
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

The Swedes won. They smashed the Imperialist left wing but Imperialist reinforcements arrived in the nick of time. Unfortunately it was the Imperialist player's first game and so what he did was send a little to each sector. This meant he had some success on his right and probably would have won there. But the Swedes were able to turn some of their victorious cavalry on the Imperialist left into their centre, game over.

It was a good game but the scenario will need a few tweaks. For me the highlight was Gustav II Adolf being the 'Chicken of the North'. The Swedish player knew he died at this battle so he hid the king's figure out of harms way for the entire battle :)
