An interesting game, I do like the way your morale system bubbles away under the surface

Now I remember why your blog was not in my feed.  Your thumbnail photo blows up my Blogs Followed widget.

Sneaking a last solo-battle of the year in before the invasion of the Christmas decorations, I took the opportunity to re-visit the terrain of Aqua Sextae (105BCE) used for the first battle of the year but this time with some heavy infantry armies.

So it was time for my Spartans and Romans to go paddling.

Longer report available on my website for those who have already unwrapped their parcels.

Thank you.  I like your battlefields and the clear reports.

Thank you.  I like your battlefields and the clear reports.

I agree.  Clear, well-photographed, annotated, and succinct.  Why the decision to face units toward hex flat vs hex vertex?

[Imperial Dave]

super stuff David...as always!

Went will with a brew

The decision to face troops on the hex flat as opposed to the vertex seemed logical at the time Jon, but I can't quite remember why now. Potentially it was something to do with having troops advance straight ahead rather than veering about and it made defining shooting arcs at long range easier.

I hope you had a mince pie with your coffee/tea as well Jim.

I'm with you on the hex flat, it does make sense for this sort of thing.
Dark chocolate digestive rather than mince pie

To push back the frontiers of debauchery, they ought to be served straight from the fridge
