We had a game at the weekend using a part of my GoT figures . The rules we used were Dragon Rampant. The was to “rescue” a wizard. The wizard moved randomly (when he moved at all ). My son played the Lannisters I played the Starks.
The wizard.
The disposition at the beginning.
The Starks had the first move but lost the roll for movement and so the Lannisters had a go. The wizard refused to move at all.
My son tried to move the Lannisters but failed the to move die roll too. Therefore Robb Stark was activated by me to gallop for the wizard.
Both sides send the heavies in then.
The infantry followed up next
An Overview of the battle at this stage.
Then a Move activation of Robb Stark worked and he reached the wizard.
Now a grand melee commenced around Robb and the wizard!
The battle moved from side to side and both sides lost a lot of warriors, so that at last a battle between Jaime Lannister and Robb Stark decided the fate of the wizard.
And the Lannisters could lead the wizard away
I Hope you liked the battle report . Next will be a full battle with all the Got figures I have .
Here are pictures of the finished House Brax unit . A 12 man mixed unit for Dragon Rampant:
Next GoT unit will be a mixed House Blackwood of Raventree unit.
Here is the last addition to my House Brax unit . The Captain of the unit. The figure is from Perry the Shield from Fire Forge. The heraldry is as always freehand.
I will put up pictures of the completed unit as soon as I have taken them.
I finished the last House Brax Billman yesterday. A strait build from a Perry box ( don’t ask me which though, can’t remember)
Next and last miniature in this unit will be the Captain of the unit.
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I managed to do another House Brax Crossbowman .
He is build from a Perry HYW set and a Gripping beast head. Next up the last Billman of the unit.
Another billman . Next up will be a new crossbowman
