Charlie's Xmas Game-medieval.

Our club was invited to Charlie Wesencraft's club Christmas game on Saturday,but due to prior commitments only Graham and I could make it,however we represented our club to the best of our abilities(not knowing the rules or style of play!) and had a very interesting day,and were made more than welcome(being fed copious amounts of coffee and biscuits!)

These two photo's show the setting up process-we played in a factory setting! being hosted by Glen and his son William-many thanks to them both for being such good hosts.

These two shots show the myriad of figures being distributed to each player-young William looks pensive,as well he should-by a throw of the dice he ended up as CinC for our side!!

We're off!!-top photo shows my flank(right of our army) and bottom photo shows Charlie's flank(our left)-it's all looking too civilised so far!!

I had to leave early(2.30) but before I did,this happened-a unit of my archers was charged in the flank,due to a sneaky move by Dave,by his Knights!-I expected them just to be ridden down(as per our Rules!) but they didn't,they turned and fought the Knights to a draw!!-that'll teach him!
As you can see in the background,all hell is breaking loose and everyone is involved-unfortunately my command was wiped out just as I was about to leave-seems familiar!
However I enjoyed the game/banter and hopspitality,as did Graham-once again many thanks to Charlie and his club.
