I ventured down the highway to the cold, drizzly and misty Southern Highlands for a semi-regular Thursday game. We had a great game today using the Impetus 2 rules. It pitched Richard's Sea Peoples against Rex's Myceanians.
This was a replay of a game last Thursday using the same armies - except last week Rex had brought the wrong list and so (unknowingly at the time) fielded an army only 80% of full strength. So Richard and I were expecting a harder fight than last week and John was supporting Rex on the Myceanian side.
It was a wonderful game with the poor quality Sea Peole troops swarming around the Myceanian chariots as they became separated and picked off. In the end we had a mutual break of armies on the same turn, so a draw.
As is the custom, we broke for a wonderful lunch of home cooked corned beef, potatoes and Italian style peas with flash sourdough from Bowral and a few bottles of red.
Oh, these are wonderful collections!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan. They certainly are and hence a joy to play with. The Myceanian shields are all hand painted as well
