Two games at the Hutt Club on Saturday - from Alastair Duncan, 24 March 2024

From roving report Alastair Duncan at the Hutt Valley Wargaming Club yesterday: Gary Lewis's Norman's clashed with Barry Norris's Byzantines in a battle with fast knights on both sides and good night to the Byzantine superior cav.

Did the compulsory Art S get to shoot? Ask the Varangians who looked staunch but didn't bother to fight.

Meanwhile Russell Briant's Russell's stunning Lusitanian superior psilo swarmed Alastairs 9, thats IX, inferior Carthaginian elephants only to find the dice gods were agin them. Though the stampeding cattle did the business!!!

Cartage delenda non !

With regards to the flaming cattle doing the business I think the might have killed one LH(O) and one Wb(O) for the loss of three Ex(O)

In the words of one A Duncan

“They were expendable!”

Barry Norris

A base calumny. The Varangians bravely killed a knight. Alright the Knight was Fast and double overlapped by bows at the time. And, no, the compulsory Art(S) never fired a shot.
