15mm solo games.

Over the past week or so,I have been playing a few solo games,7YW,Romans and today Sudanese,all have been relaxing and exciting in equal measures,here are a few photographs..................

 This is my Sudanese game-British had to take the "Town" which was heavily defended,with Dervish troops coming in to help the defenders from the right,as you look at the photo's.

The British commander (ME!!) decided to form in line and not in square-what a clever move that turned out to be-not!

Help is on its way-thousands of 'em!!

Sack the British commander,that's what I say!!!

A view from the Dervish side of the table-I will have to use the Square next time,with my rules the troops in square get a bonus plus two onto their dice,making it very difficult for the attackers to get into the square-why didn't I use it???(answers on a post card please!

I did better using my Romans against a huge Gallic army....................

The legions have marched out of the fort and onto a nearby hill,a legion of auxiliaries are marching to support them,but will the Gauls allow them to get into formation?

No of course not! an attack along the lines,and with cavalry on both flanks getting engaged!

An initial attack on the Roman left was driven off,but not before the Gauls inflicted heavy casualties on the Aux. legion,the Gauls retired(it's good being retired!) allowing the Romans to execute a flanking move which threatened the rest of the Gallic attack,however the Aux, legion on the right was "roughly handled!"

Aux. Legion being "Roughly handled"-remember that each red pom-pom indicates the amount of casualties the unit has taken!!

End of the game-Gauls out-flanked and soundly beaten in the centre-cracking game!!

I was on the good old internet yesterday and learned that Warlord Epic are about to release their latest offering,in July, of Hannibal,including Romans and even elephants-can't wait(but you'll have to!) check it out-fantastic!!
