A General d Armee game yesterday - Telavera scenario. Was about honours even, as the British C0mmander it was nice to equal froggy skimishers for a change.

This week 2 games of Zombie Stagecoach and one of Midgard (Dwarves vs Elves).

4 games of MeG this weekend, came 5 out of 6 with a big win, an absolute loss, a draw and a fair sized loss.
But I did use 10mm cavalry and sheep.

Love playing BBDBA...fast and furious games. We went for all infantry forces in the first game and the Scots Pk didn't have much fun against the Low Countries Pk and English missile troops.

We changed the French ally to Burgundians for the return match. They had 3 units shot away in the first exchange (don't roll 1's Peter 🙂) but hung on as the French right wing unexpectedly rolled up their opposite numbers in two turns. A good couple of evenings 👍

March count finally done!

Well we are a varied bunch aren't we   

I've no idea what these numbers mean - other than bad news for Leon in that he has to keep producing more and more ranges of figures!

Burrows & Badgers
Mort's warband failed to rescue their Mole Friar before I handed him over to the witch hunters.

I am not sure  how much it matters but I played 4 Sci-Fi games on the 5th April

Quite a lot, as that was March's count, and didn't have much Sci-fi. , and now you've given April a boost. Thank you.

Ran a GdA game last night....

WWI naval using GQ I/II, 4 players, 3 hours

An intriguing scenario by Pierre the Shy

Our series of games to get troops who haven't been played with for a while back on the table has definitely produced some fun games. It has also reminded us how much you can forget about a ruleset

Couple of games to add

WWI wargame - French vs Germans (again!) If the Lord Spares Us. 2 players 6 player hours. This time a German attack, which initially was succesful due to concentration of force, but rapidly ran out of steam 


Fantasy wargame - goblins vs dwarves, using Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game / War of the Ring. First game using these rules for many months. Gave a good game, we got through 6 turns of so. Dwarves are very though in combat! 2 players 7 player hours. 

I like "player-hours" as a measure.

Maybe a measure for 2026! 

QuoteI like "player-hours" as a measure.

Ta, I thought it was useful as recently we've played a lot of Dead Man's Hand, which is often 3 short scenarios in an evening which scores 3 on the game count, for perhaps 6 player hours. But I've also played all day multiplayer games which just get 1 on the game count, but are perhaps 30 player hours. 

My numbers are very much rough calculations, I'm not running a stop watch on my games (although when I played timed games of KoW they were fun)
