My friend Johan and I had a game of Lion Rampant set in the age of the Crusades.

Troops from the Egyptian Ayyubid dynasty was sent on a mission to collect taxes from a village when Syrian raiders decided to grab the gathered taxes before the Egyptians could collect it.

Very interesting AAR, sounds like you had a lot of fun, and a few problems, trying to rob the peasants blind!

A small AAR from our last Crusade game of Lion Rampant.

The Franks had found an oasis and then the Saracens attack...
It is believable that the Egyptian and Turkic forces have spotted the French and German movement and calculated that they where moving towards this waterhole.
They attack before the Crusaders have fully mustered their forces.

Will the Crusaders manage to hold their positions untill their reinforcements arrive?...

I dont think their are any better way of Necroposting a crusader adventure then to post about the Knights of Sait Lazarus...

I started with Fireforge miniatures and then added some undead bits from the Frostgrave cultist box, and some metal miniatures for that added variation. I really like the colour pallet of the green versus the white and the dark chainmail. This was a fun unit to build and paint.

Grand job Engel, I too will be doing the Lazarus Knights, but I will using some Zombie head swaps!

If it isn't enjoyable, it isn't gaming!

Thanks all!


Thanks Aesthele, glad you enjoyed it.
As you may already know you can use the labels or the search options if their are anything special you want to look for. Its been live a couple of years now so its start to be a rather huge collection of miniatures and posts in general.
