Fab looking game and great to see an undulating landscape.   :-*

Those archers must have got a lot of work in shooting at the marks :)

Superb, thanks for all the work that you are putting into these posts, I think single handedly you are motivating many of us to get out armies painted, based and onto the table.

I don't think I've ever been so jealous of not being present at a series of games!!  :'(

(Jealous is perhaps the wrong word but I think you know what I mean)

Keep them rolling and I'll keep on reading  :)
