a late post of the Song of Spear and Shield game

This is a report on the game we had on the 20th of Song of Spear and Shield. Once again George and I met to set our little lead men to the test. I ran my Revolting Slaves:

So the two forces faced off outside a small county villa.

The Revolting Slave javlin men advanced and were charged by the Numidian Lt. Cavalry in the first turn.

The next turn had the Javlinmen get the better of the Numidians, and the rest of the troops face off.

The Roman bow manuver for a shot,

Romans advance followed by a end run by the Slaves carefull to clear the ZOC,

the Slaves charge in and the general melee begins

More troops clash as the skirmishers, and Slave leader look on,

Romans take heavy losses as one group is overwhelmed, the lt archers move to support,

the Romans break when the archers are overrun,

The tax paying citizen is not pleased!

A good game, Im always happy with the head to head bashes, I do need to finish up that little villa tho...
