What was the last ruleset you played 2018?

[Leman]

Fk,  I took some on my phone camera, but it seems less than keen to transfer to my iPhoto album (probably because my phone was made by Mr Moto). If I can find a way to move them around I will certainly post some pictures as my mate's armies are quite impressive even though he bought them long before the Flodden range was developed.

[FierceKitty]

Not in a position to put pressure on you. We took no pictures of the Austrian victory today, not even on a Handy.

[Leman]

No probs, I need to have a mess around with it anyway as it would make life simpler not to have to carry both phone and camera, particularly as the phone seems to have more pixels.

[FierceKitty]

Doctor, you've got to help me! I've got pixels!

[Wulf]

Doctor, you've got to help me! I've got pixels!

You probably had a few bytes.

  Coats gentlemen, and no luck transferring photos to my computer. I may be able to do it by emailing them to myself, downloading to a finder file, then uploading to Flickr, finally downloading to Pendraken. Worth doing as both armies are 100% Pendraken, but will take some time, which I won't have until later in the week. Will also post them in the photos section as Italian Wars.

Yes that should work, attach to an emil to yourself. Only thing to look out for is buffer size.

1) What ruleset do you use in your last game? - MeG
2) What armies were confronted? - Samurai vs Feudal German (as you do)
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset? - yip
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset? - narp
5) How many players were in the game? - 2
6) What went well? Not much! Destroyed a unit of knights.
7) What could have been improved? My dice were on strike, even when I had a massive advantage! I was also over confident in my army, and i got torn apart! 

[Leman]

1. FoGR

2, Spanish v French pre-1520 Italian Wars

3. Yes - getting into the rhythm with these - more so than A and M FoG

4. This was my third go with these particular armies

5. Three players - two Spanish and one French (c'est moi)

6. I think the most important thing about this game was my gain in confidence at playing these rules. I liken it to learning a foreign language, ie. you can read the rulebook as much as you like but until you actually play very little sinks in. I learnt more conversational French over four fortnightly holidays than 5 years in school (although I did learn all about open back buses in Paris, which had long been withdrawn by the time I got there aged 19 - ah, the modern textbook  ). The Swiss pike and gendarmes began to power forward into the Spanish colunelas and landsknechts wreaking a certain amount of havoc. *

7. Unfortunately the Spanish lighter troops got round my flanks and the colunelas held, despite the landsknechts breaking and routing. The gendarmes then began to crumble. After 1 3/4 hours I had lost four key units and two of my three generals and conceded. As this was one of our morning games, just after 1pm we removed to the pub for lunch and debriefing.

* Another plus was that I bought the Spanish army to keep it in the club and will produce a French army of my own as the one in the photo is being sold and I have the figures to produce a new army.

1) Ronin at Colours
2) Samurai v Koreans

4) No
5) Three players - two young lads took the Samurai, I played the Koreans defending a castle
6) The two lads picked up the rules very quickly and the game flowed well
7) A good game, but I was right, royally rogered - the Korean casualties piled up at an alarming rate once the Samurai broke into the castle
