Title: Beneath the Lily Banners-Play test
Post by: vcina on September 25, 2017, 05:47:43 AM

Last night the group I game with had a first run through with the rules "Beneath the Lily Banners".
I did a little write up about our experience.

Gosh!
An untested rule set and ten players... :o

It must have been like hearing cats... :D

Of all the rules that I could use for my WSS project they are the ones I have least used ( once under someone else's guidance) , so it was interesting to hear your thoughts.

All the best.  Aly

It was a bit like herding cats! The guys in the group are great.

I love your blog Aly! Keeps me inspired.

I recently inherited these rules along with some old Blood Axe figures so I am interested in your thoughts as well.

Nice looking game and a good clear report. I have played these rules for several years and they usually give an enjoyable game.

These are my favourite rules for this period.

I have played them many times and they catch the feel of the era perfectly.
