1471 - 2nd Battle of Crown Hill

The saga of Piggy Longton continues, Lord Darcy attempts to re-take his estates, while on the national stage Barnet has been fought and the potential consequences of Tewkesbury type engagement loom large!

Sword & Spear 2nd Edition from Great Escape Games.

Have you reviewed these rules? I hope so.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

Very nice looking game and write-up.
Gods, monsters and men,
Will die together in the end.

Thanks all.

No, I was somewhat surprised that despite so frequently using them, I have not done an observational post on the Sword & Spear Second edition rules, though the author did do a series of YouTube videos describing the various game mechanics, plus another YouTuber (a Mr. Astley I think) did an AAR.

The procedures are dice heavy which may not suit everyone. I think they work well, though I wish just a couple of places here and there (Impetus) could do with an extra paragraph of explaining.
