Looks like it was a good game with two great looking classic fantasy armies.

Sounds like quite a fun battle.  Maybe next time Clive will fall in the right direction...

Great looking game!  That is quite a mass of pikemen.  Still, two chariots and a giant.  They held well. 

I'm originally from Hucknall.  We lived in a bungalo on Hayden Lane that my parents built, or had built I suppose.

They had some sort of buff spell on them - re-rolling 1s I think and they had a warrior priest in the unit so possibly had hatred as well. And tey get a boatload of attacks - 3 ranks for horde, plus an extra rank for spears, so quite a lot - all of them thrown at the giant.
