Very possibly Jaye. Can you explain the difference? We played that a figure portrayed with a shield is automatically equipped with a shield, but that a figure shown with armour has to take ‘armoured’ as a trait. At least, I think that’s the way we agreed to play it!  ;)

You armoured just your knight If I recall as a personal trait? We used the armoured trait for the whole team whereas you took ferocious as your team trait?

Working out hits exactly as per the core set: Chainmail is light armour roll 8 plus to save if hit on a d10, but -1 if the figure had a shield. If the attacker rolls a natural 10 then no armour save is made.

Sounds right. The description on the cards threw me off.

And the save just knocks the wound down one factor. So a Wound result is rolled but the knight makes his save. It gets knocked down to Shock.

Great figures, terrain, and a truly entertaining AAR to read also.
Thank you for sharing it.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, A Fistful of Lead also never struck me as a ruleset with any relevance for pre-Renaissance settings.. and then you show us this.
Appears to be interesting. Certainly looks awfully pretty!

Are these armor rules in the base "Fistful of Lead"? I can't find them in GH or WW..?

Yep, that’s exactly how we played it!

Anyone might think I actually know what I’m doing  :D lol
