I had a great day at the Drury wargaming club on Saturday. I got to join in with a huge English Civil War game.
There must have been at least a thousand miniatures on each side, on a table 6ft x 20ft. The Royalists had six players against the Parliamentarians five. I was given command of the Parliamentarian cavalry on the left flank. Three brigades lined up opposite three brigades of Royalist cavalry and a couple of cannons. Even though one of my brigades refused to engage, we destroyed the opposing cavalry and began rolling up the enemy flank just as the Royalist resistance collapsed.
I had a fantastic time with a great bunch of guys who were more than happy to help out a newb who had never played the system. I am looking forward to attending the next meeting in January.
