Mortimer's Cross 1461
« on: 23 April 2015, 02:45:59 PM »
Last week we had a very good War of the Roses game. This time everything went almost as it was in real battle, however we managed to kill Kingmaker, so I believe that history would be slighty different after this battle. Love the moments like this.

More about the battle on my blog:

Good looking troops and a fine game. Poor Kingmaker and Lord Clifford...

Looking good. We tried Mortimer's Cross as our first battle of the WOTR with new figures and rules. We ended up with a pretty historical result as well.

Yet again regrets of leaving Edinburgh come to the fore  ;) :)

Great pics, interesting battle and one question; are we likely to see a Wars of the Roses demo game being run at Claymore?

Darrell, this is great news. Are you going to visit SESWC too? If yes we can arrange some Medieval game :)

Bart,

Unfortunately, I'm not sure that I'd be able to stay for that long as I'd have to arrive on the Thursday and leave on the Sunday. It's a real shame really as it would be brilliant to catch up with everyone- you don't get that much of a chance to really talk at a wargames show.
