  • Our second Wars of the Roses battle report using Hail Caesar. We have developed the commanders and added a few rules here and there. In this scenario the Lancastrians are trying to get their pillaged goods through the town to the main army before the forces of York can stop them,

    Another great battle report Martin, only a couple of problems I can see. First is, you have to throw better dice, second is you have to learn to win. Out of seven games with Haley and this one you've lost them all. Only joking, you produce and video the best games and scenarios I've seen for a long time. It's all about enjoying what your doing, and not really about winning. Well done Martin.

      @@7thson726 Aren't cavalry allowed to counter-charge if charged? (as long as they are not shaken). I only saw a counter-charge on the last melee with the large unit of knights. It is one of the main ways that Hail Caesar discourages infantry charging cavalry. Counter-Charging would have made a big difference to the game.

    • @7thson726

    What would have happened if the Yorkist reinforcements hadn't turned up? If the Yorkist side had no troops on the table could or would the Yorkist reinforcements have appeared or would it just be assumed that the cart continued to go along and off the table unhindered? Also could the Lancastrians have shifted cavalry to the Yorkist edge of the table and prevent their reinforcements coming on?

      I had to watch it back as it was so long ago, it was because of the proximity rule, as they were a formed unit they we're obliged to attack that unit infront of them, didn't get enough orders off to clear the pond and got bogged down.
      As for Hastings, yeah, he may has well not shown up at all, but thats how it goes sometimes, now i would work it slightly differently but this was ages ao, don't think its worth getting that angry over 👍
