Of course we haven't fought the battle yet - that is being saved for the anniversary on the 23rd Jan next year...so if any of my fellow Blammers are interested in a Sunday game at the Berrylands pub let me know

It has been a rare pleasure to follow this project! Can't wait to see more!
Now listen to me you benighted muckers. We're going to teach you soldiering. The world's noblest profession. When we're done with you, you'll be able to slaughter your enemies like civilized men.

You were looking for draught horses and the Crann Tara limber set has 2 suitable sized animals with the bonus that the limber provides an axle tree for the wagons (and you get a couple of nice wheels for the bits box.  ;)

]

please which drivers do you use?
