I have just completed a photo review of the rules together with a blow by blow write up of a game. I hope it goes some way to explain how Peter & Martins great little game plays.

Thank you Chris for the review.

This review is the second to come in, we are still awaiting the US review to post. I will link you review to the web site today. Each and every review is welcomed by us and there will be a 5 page review in Wargames Illustrated in March I believe.

Come and join in for a joust at West Midlands Show at Aldersley on Sunday 9th March.

Thanks to all who played last Sunday and enjoyed themselves, the kids faces when they beat their Dads was brilliant, also thanks to those who bought the rules we did very well thank you so much...!

PS just got the first proof read back from the designer so we are on track for the second rule set.

A great day out at Stafford Games who after playing a few runs in the tilts has become a stockist of our game, well done Ronald...we won't apologise for you getting knocked onto your backside twice!

We had a knock recently by a guy who basically wanted more control over his horse.
 I said to him that after a conversation with a jouster, who said "the horse does not always do what you want and will often shy away on a third run", because of this we deliberately left total control out of rule book one.

We did though in rule book 2 (the foot melee) give options to use in the joust to vary the horse speed.

Eagerly awaiting my rulebooks from Sally 4th. I really want to check out those mechanics.

Hi Argonor,

The Joust is based on the amount of times you go up and down and score points, when you do not score this reflects the lesser hits etc, rule book 2 gives options to the joust and a bit more control over the horse.
