The Battle of Catraeth at Partizan today

Post by scrivs » Sun Sep 02, 2012 6:28 pm

Today was Partizan at Kelham Hall. James, Matt, Andy H, Andy M, Tom, Steve and myself re-fought the Battle of Catraeth, the battle detailed in the Y Gogodin epic poem.

An excellent time was had and here are a few snaps.

That's just the 28mm stuff, I'm not even going to start on the other scales.

This was a great looking game. Andy Milligan and I were well impressed with it.

Who eventually got the most Glory and had their tales of derring do told by the poets for centuries to come?? :D

Cheers

You may call it sarcasm........I, on the other hand, prefer to refer to it as a humorous observation!!! :-)
