Hail Cid - a big game during the Reconquista
« on: December 31, 2014, 05:17:31 PM »
I was lucky enough to finish my gaming year in some style, playing a large game of Hail Caesar set in the Reconquista.
A report and more than 80 pictures can be found here:

Great looking game. I like large battles. Excellent overview. Pictures are worth a thousand words, so you have a "novel" there. :P
Push the button, Max...

Tom is on the invite list for my wargames Valhalla, so he always gets an invite.  Plus he has a large collection of Moors and camels.   ;)

I think we busked the scenario a bit but it was great fun.
