To quote Darth Vader, that should read "Impressive."

Nosher - as always enjoyed the BatRep - good pics and narrative.
Pretty cool reversal fortune also. You bring up the often difficult proposition of how to rate terrain features for historic battles. Took a quick look at a topo map for the area of the battle and certainly seems to support that the slope is more then gentle. I wonder, give the historic performance of Ruthvin's foot, if maybe their ratings should be reversed: one trained and three raw?
Thanks for providing your OoB by the way - really useful in figuring out how to use Baroque rules with historic battles.
