Great AAR on the blog Giles.  Lovely to see these battles being fought chronologically.

Thanks Gary - we have already fought Towton (last weekend) but I am holding fire on the post until we get the others in chronological order out the way.

Perhaps I can get you down to fight one of the others coming up. I know Captain Blood wants to fight Tewkesbury

Tewkesbury should be fun. Interesting too how you interpret the Arrival's "divers lanes" which has always stood out to me as being largely misunderstood.

I do! That’s a biggie!
Great report Giles. Surprised it turned out the way it did. Luck of the dice, or inspired generalship on the part of the victorious party?

Count me in whenever you have the space.  Given that I am a Lancastrian supporter, I'd be happy to turn the tide at Tewkesbury.  I doubt that you need any more figures but as you know I have a sizable collection if you need it.

You're half way there, keep it going

Fantastic battle report as usual and congrats to you and the team for sticking at it. I know that you still have a few more battles to go.  Can't wait to see how Towton plays out.

[Eric the Shed]

Thanks Chaps - will be posting up the Battle of Towton in the next couple of days so keep your eyes peeled - we refought Towton on the Bank Holiday weekend but wanted to post all these games chronologically.

Wow Giles, that is a lot of figures and should be an epic wargame. 

Can't wait to read the AAR.

These AARs are superb - and the armies and terrain lay-outs very impressive.   Apologies if this has already been covered earlier on in the thread, but the title suggests you are using the NMTB rule set for these enormous games.   I have the set and haven't tried them yet but had understood it is designed for much smaller, more skirmish level games.   Are you using modifications for NMTB to game this scale of battle, or another rule set entirely?

Cheers
