Yesterday afternoon out in the shed, I played a solo Chariots Rampant game with Sea People versus New Kingdom Egyptians. This is the first game I've played out in the shed since our home renovations were finished. Both sides had 48 point forces and the scenario was the usual Bloodbath one, with Sea People raiders trying to capture a village while the Egyptians defended it. The game was a lot of fun and proved to be level pegging most of the way. The Egyptian leader was killed by lucky blows and a few turns later the same fate befell the Sea People leader. In the end it was a bloody draw with both sides suffering heavy casualties.

Nice mate,
ReplyDeleteI do like biblical armies, and remember fondly my Babylonian and Armorite WAB armies
Cheers

Thanks Matt, I remember that army. I have some Amorites too mainly Warlord/Cutting Edge with some Castway Arts figures.
DeleteVery cool, Mike!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, I do enjoy a good biblical bash!
DeleteA lovely sized encounter, I do like the chariot armies.
ReplyDeleteThanks Norm, the Bronze Age is definitely one of my favourite periods.
DeleteNice painting. Well done for calling out that parasite on TMP. I have never seen him post anything he has done himself. Why not complain to Bill?
ReplyDeleteThanks Khusru, yeah he's a pain, spamming all the message boards and posting other people's content all the time. I think people have complained in the past and tried to have him banned but Bill's response was he hasn't broken any TMP rules.
DeleteLooking fantastic sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, NKE and Sea People games are a lot of fun.
DeleteLovely looking chariots,great looking biblical armies!
