We had a Crusade themed gameday using the Lions Rampant rules.
We had 2 Warbands on each side.
From a standard deck of cards I picked out 4 kings and drew one at random for a varied activations. When all colour had been drawn the 4 kings were reshuffled for the next turn.
Its a neat way that I really like.
We had the County of Tripoli with some Knights of st John allied with some Christian warriors frpm Nubia pitted against two Warlords with their forces from Egypt and Damascus.
The Knight of st Johns were beast plowing through the ranks of the Muhamedans
And I really like the simplicity of the Lions Rampant rules and its so simple to just add another Warband to get a larger force or just as a simple way for an extra player to join.
Looking forward to see what will happen with the new edition of the Lions Rampant that are just around the corner.
Fantastisk! What a wonderful looking game... I'm painting some 12th century Scots while I wait for the new Lion Rampant and looking through your report is just the inspiration I need to keep putting those units together.
