Further coverage of yesterday's big game is here as I give due coverage to the gallant losers.
If you missed the previous post, Roland at Stafford Games staged a "Pike & Shotte" Demo Day at his store, when Steve Morgan of Warlord Games, and author of the "Pike & Shotte" rules, spent a fantastic day taking us newbies through a thoroughly enjoyable outing with said rules. 12 x 6 table, a fair few figures and a great game.
Thanks Roland, Steve and fellow players! This was a truly fantastic gaming day!!!

| The gallant opposition, in the form of Trevor (seated), Chris (in black, perhaps in recognition of what was to come!), Alan and Greg |
 |
| Aldringen - these were Steve Morgan's figures and some at least of those he brought to the game were from the former Mark Allen collection seen in WI 20-odd years ago - VERY NICE!!! |
 |
| Regiment Verdugo |
 |
| Greg's cavalry that gave Andy so much trouble on our right flank - I love Kurassiere and they are seriously tough in "Pike & Shotte"!!! |
 |
| The Imperialist reserve who gamely marched off to their right flank, opening up their centre for a good bashing! |
 |
| Imperialist foot under serious pressure trying to defend the manor house from our assault |
 |
| The infirm Imperialist commander in his "wheels" |
 |
| Closer view of some of those rock hard Kurassiere |
 |
| Oops, double pictures...... |
 |
| Playing "King of the Castle" won't save you... |
 |
| The Imperialist heavy battery that gamely deigned to catch a number of my cannon shot, but refused to yield |
An excellent looking game, some beautiful figures!!
