The Raid a new Ruckus Scenario
« on: 19 January 2024, 12:57:29 PM »

I have a bad case of prescient nostalgia. The future's not what it used to be.

Great table & figures. Game sounds like it was fun. I do like a scenario with random events.

Another fun write up and a great looking game.

You mention Rob using a slightly different set up. Was that part of your play testing or is there an option to tweak your forces a little in the rules?

Yes, the English HYW Retinue is quite flexible. You can have several different versions from the standard 3/3/6 to a Full English with ten archers 1 man at arms and the captain   Here is a link to my Agincourt Welsh/English where you can read more about the different possible Retinues https://wilgut.blogspot.com/2023/08/a-welsh-english-retinue-at-agincourt.html

Great stuff. Is that particular to that setting or is there some flexibility in the WOTR retinues too?

Yeh...some! TBH many of the play testers are using various mixed bags with success. There are rules for mercenaries which anyone can use although you lose prestige. Eventually there will be Retinues for all the armies mentioned in Billhooks and some time in the future, Ruckus will tackle early medieval and ECW

That sounds great. Really looking forward to trying these rules out.
