Battle Ravens - game three

Last night I ran the game again, this time with actual players!  This took place at the new home of Sheffield Wargames Society at the Farm Road Club in Sheffield (every Wednesday from 7pm - new members and visitors welcome!)
Jerry (left) led the Norse army with Tim C (right) as the Anglo-Saxons. Watched and egged on by John (off camera) and Diego (centre). Diego is a recent arrival at SWS and had downloaded and read a copy of the Battle Ravens rules. Which at least meant that one of us knew what was happening...
In the game, Tim favoured hefty 9-point attacks while Jerry did a lot more shuffling of troops. In the end and despite some gratuitous wargames pointing from Jerry, the Anglo-Saxons prevailed.
The game took about 40 minutes. Next time we’ll try out the tactics cards.

Great looking games.

Another new venue? This one looks walkable from the train station too.

Cheers,

A 5-10 minute walk from the railway station. We’ll expect to see you soon then!

Definately in that case then.
