Off to visit Paul tomorrow to play a"what if" FK&P scenario based on the battle of Rowton Moor that I designed. This will be the combat debut for both my completed Covenant pistol armed cavalry regiments and some of Paul's newly completed Royalists so I hope it goes well. There is not a pike in sight, but lots of cavalry plus some supporting dragoons and commanded shot. Should be an interesting afternoon's gaming and a good way to round out 2018 wargaming wise

It appears I will have the privilege of fighting under the gaze of my Sovereign

Hopefully I can improve on history

I'm looking forward to what promises to be an interesting game, definitely a good way to round out 2018
