First Clash of Spears game

 Finally got to play my first game of Clash of Spears against an opponent.

Cecil and I got to gether at the Hamilton Road Gaming Group in the Crouch Public Library last week (28th May),

My Carthaginians versus his Republican Romans.

Did not take many pictures,

 Lesson learned: 

* Cavalry is Fragile.

* Pila can be nasty. I charged a unit of 13 close order Carthaginian spearmen onto 8 close order Princepes, ate a reaction volley of pila; took 2 fatigue, therefore stalled and lost close order, then counter charged by the Princepe. The unit was quickly down to 3 figures.

Back at it

 After a long hiatus (mainly due to vision problems), I am painting again.

I thought I should deal with some of my pile of, potential, glory. 

First up is my box of Wargames Atlantic Persians.

I painted the Archers.

 Then some peltast.

The yearly total is:
     Vehicles (1/72 scale):                0
