The King’s War Chest
« on: August 30, 2019, 05:32:28 PM »
Hi, Ive recently joined the forum. Thought I would share a few pictures from my last game of The Pikeman’s Lament. We played the King’s War Chest scenario with a Royalist supply train being surprised by a Covenanter force while the escorting commanded shot were having a dip in the river. I thought my Royalists were going to get spanked after I rolled a double 1 followed by a 1 which meant that 4 points of my company - the two escort units - turned tail and scarpered. Covenanter Horse grabbed the mule train and tried to get them out of reach however the Royalist reinforcements, mainly consisting of Horse and dragoons turned the tables, with the commanding officer Sir John Langley recapturing the mule train after destroying three Scots units.  The herd of cows and supply wagon were also whisked to safety.

Sounds like you had an exciting game on a nice looking table.

And it seems you've caught on camera that little known seventeenth century gravitational flux phenomenon.   ;)

Oops, you’re right. Any suggestions how I can rotate the photos?

Once posted, no idea.  But some of the moderators may be able to fix it.  Or maybe repost from original source and adjust the source.
