We Wuz Robbed.

Sorry for the spoiler-laden title, but I'm very bitter about the paddling I received at the weekend. Credit to JoeySpike for playing intelligently and using resources effectively

The home side, looking so dashing in their period strip.

Uruks sir, thousands of 'em!



A few months ago I had game with Joey Spike, my LoTR-fan chum who's visiting at the weekend, and there were pics, so I thought I'd give my lovely fans a look. 
The forces of Good pause for the pre-battle cup of tea.

Battle reports and rumours of battle reports

Today's title comes from the outing my Chaps and Chapettes are getting at the weekend with a Lord of the Rings strategy battle game loving pal of mine. I shall post the edited highlights with totally unbiased commentary tomorrow, or Friday, or whenever.

Crusader minis knights review: Humans in armour are good, but horses far too spindly and undernourished.
