15mm Wargaming for Fun and Sanity: Song of Blades and Heroes going Egyptian.

The sand is from me starting to flock (well, sand) the scenic bases.

A quick note on blogger. I normally cut n paste from the Ganesha builder into a document. This time I did it the other way around. Difference, I cannot adjust the borders. But, all the borders came out.

Set up. I'm defending with the undead. I chose the scenics and the objective we diced for position.

Great objective from Alternative Armies. Yes, it needs painting:

The Game 1) I'm close to the objective and defending.

Tony advances in a clump vs my line.

You just know where this is going---

Tony does a flanker with his kepesh, the hound is in the other. Sorcerer is being stealthy.

I put my axe up as a block, didn't go well as it's them wot got hacked.

My Hup Hit Hop breaks through and engages Big Bop.

Now it all happens a bit fast, so sort of a montage. Big Bob is bested!

One kepesh gets mullered by two.

Hound humps archer, steals and buries best bones.

Right, now we're back on track and it's morale for lost leader. Note I'm losing more fast---.

The spear retreat for the nearest edge. Now out of formation---.

The hound and sorcerer move on---

Close!

My leader issues a reform order and the troops stand by their knees.

A surviving spearman charges my leader. Amazingly it only gets shoved back.

A proper dogfight starts on the flank. A spearman attacks the pushed back one but gets cut down by a flank charge.

Spearman moves in, shoved back.

Hack, thrust - one each.

The survivor.

Meastwhile the leader and Hup Hit Hop move in. One shot down the other stabbed.

The remainders run for cover.

Hup Hit Hop spears one in the back.

Hup Hit Hop comes the crop. The speared on gets up on reaction. Faced with 2 opponents Hup Hit Hop gets -1 so combat 1. Then he rolls a 1 for a total of 2. 2.

The spearman has combat 2 and gets a strong strike for 3. He rolls a 3. 2 vs 6 is a gory death--.

The surviving spearman charges my leader (so he can't get shot) and knocks him down. Another spearman returns and finishes him on the ground. Another grisly death!!!
