On Wednesday Craig came over to my place and we played a 200 point ADLG game out in the shed. Craig commanded an early Mycenaean/Achaean force that was supposed to represent the lands of Assuwa, a confederation of western Anatolian kingdoms against the might of Hatti. This proved to be a fun, close and hard fought game and the Achaean/Mycenaean forces and the Hittites were well matched. In the end it was a prolonged, bloody draw but we got the armies' break point wrong so it could have finished sooner!

Excellent! Seeing your Mycenaeans face off against Hittites gives me motivation to start a Mycenaean/Trojan project.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, it was a fun game. There’s some great Mycenaean/Trojan ranges around.

ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, always enjoy the Bronze Age games.
DeleteLove the overall colour scheme of the mat, the bases, the figures. Must be a treat to play!
ReplyDeleteThanks Aaron, I base all of my Bronze Ages armies in the same way, they’re fun to play.
