Too Fat Lardies

Right, this is me and Infamy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mv0onXhyLlE Infamy has failed the "25 Mile Rule" and yet again, we have had a non game, due to one sides failure to Deploy onto the table. I have played with the same people for nigh on 30 years, the various venues have always been 5-6 mi...

Interesting that the number of archers is so low. Maybe the Brits didn't stand around to be shot at! Though I imagine its more to do with the expected amount of use by AD130.

Yeah that sounds like the sort of thing I want to try. My Barbarian is nervous, I think he somehow feels he will get cut to ribbons. I am sceptical of that idea!

The key thin...

OMG! I'm starting to sound like a WRG rules player, from way back when!

So that will be mostly hilly and wet then!

Just a general inquiry to see what people are up to when it comes to putting little men on the table. Are you: (1) Just using the samples from the Force Lists section of the rules. (2) Using the sample Force Lists and adding 25/35/45 points on the D6 roll, as per Page 30 (3) Playing with your own ch...

Ah! Another alternative! We will get rid of the little Devils somehow!

Ben D: "Or, End of Act occurs, then you have to do a set back for all your breaking groups and the groups are removed" We have had a reasonable number of End of Act occurrences but either too soon in the game for breaking groups to be around, or possibly later on and we have forgotten them, even tho...
