Have another battle report for you. Lots going on lately so have been working through them. Last Friday was the historical gaming club day, got a chance to play some ADG. I took my War of the Roses army for a spin and Bad Duncan had some French ordinance. These armies are kind of similar.
This game is kind of like a cross between DBMM or DBA and field of glory. There were a few people around so some interest at least.
Here's the deployment. I set up with my 3 wings in a line. Archers in the center, pikes holding the line by a field and a bunch of foot knights hoping to get around the flanks. Duncan took a more compact formation with archers backed up by foot knights behind.
Slow advance. I didn5 move to much as artillery is stationary and I didn't want to leave it behind. I would have not taken this stand, but thus is all my units and I am still short of 200 points!
Getting close now, my German mercenary likes started taking fire from the French archers and took a disruption.
Left flank fully engaged now and an on going arrow battle as the center and right wings close. My pines are having z hard time, but my mass of archers in the center are doing well.
Guess I missed a turn or 2! But how we have chaos fighting all along the line. On the left I charged my knight general into the field to fight the archers without thinking and he got killed. The center went well, but on the right my 4 foot knights are losing to 2!
Well I quickly reached the break point and became demoralized, so a win for the French. I think it was the general that did me in we were pretty ost otherwise. Generals getting killed is not good it seems!
Thanks;
Mike
