It is always nice to hear that someone had fun with the game. <br /><br />Considering the two games (Hastings and Stamford) share the same system, the difference in play is significant. It can be a grinding struggle for the Norman to get up that hill ..... Just don't give up, it often comes good towards the end and in that fight, expect both William and Harold (sudden death) to be fighting in the last turn, with both players feeling they need all the help they can get.Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-44041375835910277172016-05-10T17:03:51.461+00:002016-05-10T17:03:51.461+00:00Just played this game (without prior Hastings expe...Just played this game (without prior Hastings experience) with miniatures and messed some things up from the very beginning. This first one will make you wince. We didn't understand until the game was nearly over that the units should be facing the vertexes instead of the hexsides. DOH! After the inevitable (who the hell does that!) melt down everybody agreed it was actually a really clever innovation and we ought to play it right next time. Also, we forgot the rule that disrupted units in ZOCs couldn't be rallied. One similarity between your AAR and our first effort (mistake prone though it may be) was that both the Anglo-Saxon leaders who are not Harold died attacking on turn 4. All in all we really liked the game and will do better with Hastings as a result of storming through Stamford Bridge. Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09471133640491146136noreply@blogger.com
