We had our 6th game in the Håtunaleken club project some week ago, I had set up two tables as it was expected several participants, but in the end we was only 6 players, we still used the two tables and putted them together to a 120x360cm table... and we run 2 scenarios at the same time...the defender in one was the attacker in the other... It was a quite fun approach and turned out really well, but the table was a bit to whide... next time same approach but on a 120x180 table....
The 2 Scenarios was first Scenarion C: The Fugetive, as The Rebell brothers had to find Valdemar that had escaped sins last scenario there he was captured by the King Birger and the second was Scenario F: Sausages with mustard, this was played as a de-coy attack from the Rebell Brothers to make it easier to rescue Valdemar.
I won´t give you a full AAR, was no chanse to keep track of all events, and I just got abunch of unsharp pictures.. sorry, I still hope you get a feel for the game.

The House of Algotson arn´t just good bride robbers they do arson to ;)

The fight continued around the farm...
Fighting about the farm...
Several of the units that was looking for Valdemar now started to move to help out by the farm...
But first the Trolle Foot Serjants manaded to lure Valdemar´s knight in to the forest for a small picknick...
Foot Serjants from the House of Tre Rosor crosses the bridge to help out by the farm...
House of Algotsönerna ravaged the farm...playing with matches
Also the House of Trolle Knights made an swift advance to protect the farm...
It all ended quite bad for the Kings men once again... only saveing one of the houses in the farm...
It was a nice game but a little to long distances, try the same concept of mixing scenarios but on a smaler table.
As always a nice looking game and campaign.
ReplyDeleteA great looking game Michael! cool that its part of a Campaign.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking game. I really like the yellow and red Foot Sargeants from the House of Tre Rosor
ReplyDeleteGood to see the king could make it even though I couldn't ... ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, excellent looking game and it looks like a lot of fun! Too bad the king's men lost yet again. Maybe we have to pay one of the rebels to join our cause?
I really enjoyed that game, I even bought the Lion Rampant rules (and it's all your fault...)
ReplyDeleteYet another great AAR here at your blog. Disturbingly inspiration as always!
