It went over very well - we determined that unless the Parliament side broke the Royalist by the end of turn 6, with the chance of extended daylight adding a turn or two, it would be a Royalist win. Well Parliament came 1 point short of breaking the Royalists and night fell!
On Sunday, I played in the Kings of War tournament and managed to finish second with a record of 3 wins and one loss.

| My fine trophy for finishing 2nd. |
The loss was determined by a blindingly lucky attack roll by my ratkin opponent who inflicted 21 wounds from 25 attacks on my skeleton horde - causing it to rout and cough up the winning loot on the 7th turn. So - I was one roll away from going 4-0. But in fairness - if two other rolls went the wrong way in two other games - I could as easily have been 1-3 and awarded the Wooden Spoon. I'm not complaining!
I also just finished painting a couple of very sharp 3D printed 1/56 scale vehicles for my Bolt Action Germans. Here they are from start to finish, painted by airbrush with a bit of detail picking by hand at the end:
Lastly, I assembled (what a pain they were...poor instructions and ill-fitting) and painted some PSC Marders for my Flames of War desert Germans. They shoot better than they look ...
The Marston Moor game looks amazing! One of these years I'm going to have to make my way out to Edmonton again!
ReplyDeletethe Stug and Puma look really nice!
