Classical Indians triumphant - TtS at the NWS




The set -up. We both thought that the table looked pretty darn good!

Stdve and Russel chat while I worry about all those long pointy things😉

The view of the Indian right flank.  Those cavalry of mine would end up being vital.

I had just completed the stream pieces so was keen to get them out.

I know this looks daft but it served its purpose.  A threat to be considered.

The Macedonian advance continues.

Steve kept his beautiful new Macedonian Army in the cupboard and brought out his old Lammings and
Hinchcliffe figures for this encounter. They looked fantastic and are 43 years old!

A stirring  sight 

You can’t get alot of Indians for 130 points

About to come down to to crunch time In the centre

Indian longbow take the rough in the foreground 

A wonderful opportunity 

At this point I got so excited about potentially winning that I stopped taking photos. What a duffer!

Suffice to say that the Indians got up as young Steve couldn’t save a pike, veteran pike mind you, wound to...well...save himself.  Always a great game with Steve and a wonderful battle with a sensational set of rules.
