Title: Boozer's Gloom!!!
Post by: Harry Faversham on 22 October 2021, 12:39:35 PM
Two years of uneasy bickering have passed since the Knights of the Oblong Table have been getting all medieval with each another. But now, Ser Barrington Bonehead has committed a dastardly upon the King which cannot go unpunished. While out collecting local taxes Bonehead's minions came across a cart making it's way peacefully up the Great Yorkshire Road to King Harry the Lionfart's Castle. Said cart was transporting a giant cask of the Kingdom's finest Ale for the feast to celebrate King Harry's, Grandson's first birfday...
least it was till Ser Barrington Bonehead's shower nicked it!

This rash purloining received full approval on Bonehead's part, an approval which has now reached the ears of the King. Bringing King Harry’s retinue hotfooting up the Great Yorkshire Road to teach him the error of his ways. The good, Bishop Bonc, once again fearing for the thatched roof of his church tries to bring calm to soon to be much troubled waters.

Predictably the good Bishop’s desperate prattlings...
fall upon deaf ears…

More by good luck than good management King Harry arrives on Ser Barrington Bonehead's lands just as the Ale cart hoves into view.

Bishop Bonc's panic stricken ringing of the Church bells brings firstly, the peasants running from the field to sanctuary.

Secondly Ser Barrington Bonehead and his shower thundering over the drawbridge of his dilapidated Castle!

Thanks J, we've just had a couple of hours getting the Knights of the Oblong Table into a right tangle. The Booze wagon's gone walkabout after it's escort partook of a goodly sample, King Harry's been unhorsed and Ser Barrington Bonehead's just trampled half a dozen of his own taxpayers. Apart from that by and large, we were in full and total control of proceedings.
We're now off to the Occifer's Mess for a liquid postmortem.

:P

'Boozer's Gloom' was fought to an epic conclusion yesterday, AAR to follow shortly.
Sad to relate though...
but I think the heart and stomach of a King, and of a King of England too. Resides within; the body but of a weak and feeble woman!

Looks a brilliant game - think I spy a couple of the Brettonian knights I sold you ages ago lurking in some of those formations!
