I have always seen Bosworth as the end of the WOTR but you never know...
Andy Callan would love you to do Stoke Field, he refers to it as his "local battle"!

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

Andy has said so himself - maybe I can persuade him to visit the shed to play the game

A magnificent account and wonderful looking battles :-*
And of course you have to do Stoke Field - the winner can loot the nearby Foundry shop!

Great report Giles, and a perilously near-run thing. Quite exciting!  :)

A suitable ending to a great series! I very much enjoyed reading the blog - it must have been great fun actually playing! Incidentally, Andy Callan, Pete Harris, Richard Robinson and myself will be at Partizan in May if anyone would like to have a go at playing 'Billhooks'. As well as a participation game for bill hooks, there will be the first outing for 'Never mind the Boat hooks'...more to follow.
