Gorgeous, really. I can't wait to get my knights in amongst that riff-raff  :)

But...

Rules were modified Sharp Practise (we like these don't we Nick  :D ).

Really?
Really Really?
So you have worked out a way to avoid a unit having to stand there and get shot to pieces without moving for 8 turns because their activation card never comes up? (Yes, that really incredibly stupid, nonsensical rule! :D)

I take it Robin's Big Man card was MIA. That happens a bit too often in our games too. Last time our hero got stranded on the beach while the battle raged around him.

Ah. Evidently not ;)

Most entertaining and gorgeous visuals to boot.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Wonderful battle report, many thanks for sharing it with such a great (sorry) tale and eye-candy pics as well. I do hope that we get to read and see many more tales of the adventures of Robin Loxley and his band of merry men... maybe they even leave the woods in next battle :D

Firstly, a fantastic layout with some gorgeous pieces of themed terrain, really some of the very best.

Then the title! What can I say - inspired.

Thank you for posting.

Tony

PS.
Are Robin and his merry men still waiting to spring their trap?

Robin Hood in this AAR reminds me a bit of a certain John of Cleese's portrayal in the Time Bandits.

Excellent scenery and props but the script seems a bit "Carry on Robin"  ;)

A bit more like Sir Robin the brave from the Holy Grail.  ;)

'RUN AWAY'!!

Excellent game report.  :D Makes me want to go and paint some knights now. Damn you...
