We were so incensed by the rocks we through down our clothes in disgust |
Well that was pretty ugly!
Steve and I cracked out To the Strongest for a rumble at the club with my Gauls and his beautiful Spanish. I knew it was going to be tough after the terrain phase of the game where stacks of Iberian rough and rock refused to go away and remained in some pretty key areas. Not ideal for brave deep war bands intent on destruction but ideal for those slippery little Latino types with javelins, heavy weapons and lots of nasty insults from the hilltops.
Not an ideal place to bring your wheeled light chariot |
Turning to the right to help deter the mass of light cavalry and infantry tearing down the Gallic right flank. Even at this very early stage we were looking for the magic potion! |
Reconstruct these words into a sentence “Rock…Hard…Between…a…Caught…bugger… place” |
As expected the beautifully painted Spanish had their way with their hairy and noisy neighbours from Gaul. Great to get the figures out and great to have Steve back at the club gaming after a very busy period with work.
Maybe next time those Gauls will pick the right field to do battle upon.
Maybe!.
Ouch! Good looking game though. Really must try TTS
ReplyDeleteThanks FMB - you will really love the game. Incredible fun, frustrating at times when you draw the wrong chit but really playable set of rules
DeleteA great looking game Carlo…
ReplyDeleteMaybe next time… keep your trousers on 😁
Being naked when people get stabby isn’t a good thing…
All the best. Aly
Ha ha thanks Aly that’s very good advice!
DeleteThat is a lovely-looking game. I managed to get some flock down the back of my throat a couple of weeks ago, so know how uncomfortable that can be.
ReplyDeleteWell the flock was my excuse Lawrence anyway…and I’m sticking to it😂
DeleteAmusing post / writing and of course some nice photos as well. 😀
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew. Sometimes it’s just the way it goes and thankfully I always love playing Steve in anything we do so it was all still a great laugh.
DeleteAlways a good time playing TTS! I really must get on with the write up of the Pavia game we played last month!
ReplyDeleteThat would be great to see Peter. We very much enjoy TTS.
DeleteLovely looking game, got to paint some chariots up for a King's of war game, yours look the part!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks so much Iain. Looking forward to seeing your chariots.
