My apologies for the lack of posts over the last month, it is not that we haven't met for games, more a question of lacking the 'muse' to help with the reports. However, we have been busy setting up a scenario for a participation game at the RECON show at Pudsey on the first Saturday in December. As usual it will be under the banner of the Lance & Longbow Society and we will be using our much amended version of the Lion Rampant rules by Dan Mersey.
Our game this year will be at the end of the period covered by the Lance and Longbow Society, being set in the last years of the 15th century and involve gendarmes, stradiots, pikemen, militia and a variety of missile troops.

| The Imperial Right flank deployment |
Our scenario envisages the French and Imperial vanguards encountering each other as they advance to secure the are around San Giovese to provide food and fodder for the main force. To encourage quick play there is a time limit (this also has the advantage of letting participants know that they are only committed to the game for a limited time).

The show is on at the usual venue and the orgainsers are hoping to run a bring and buy stall (provided COVID restrictions are not increased of course). Details of the traders due to attend are here
