We did a face to face game last night (part of my checking of the series rules for the upcoming Stamford Bridge game later this year) and the Normans opened by causing a very unusual 4 disruptions and three of those were against a group of three adjacent Housecarls - so I am still getting surprises out of the game.<br /><br />I like the idea of isolated routs happening along the line, before things deteriorate into the larger scale rout.<br /><br />Originally I had thought of making the game a solo system, with an AI controlling the Saxons, but it became clear pretty early on that there was a lot of fun to be had as the Saxon the player.<br /><br />thanks for supporting the game over on BGG.<br /><br />Norm.Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-73421331744827365362015-10-01T02:20:18.868+00:002015-10-01T02:20:18.868+00:00I've been enjoying the game immensely.

I like the tandem results for some combat rolls, and the effect of deteriorating morale on routing--even the best made plans can go sideways in the chaos of battle.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08627478640831267510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-15330171709306061582014-10-20T05:36:41.168+00:002014-10-20T05:36:41.168+00:00Thanks very much for supporting the game.
