I picked this up recently following an always dangerous recommendation from a friend (thanks Matthew!). It’s a campaign I’ve long been interested in, not least because a fair bit of the action is ‘local’ to where I grew up.
It costs about £15 and the first (solo) play took just over an hour.
Lovely map and counters.
Montrose nearly did it!
The game set up to play.
Detail of the map. My part of the world!
I’ll no doubt have more to say when I’ve played it more. In this first outing, Montrose came close to victory but basically ran out of troops. He did, however, manage the all-important sack of Dundee!
Sack of Dundee! An outrage.
ReplyDelete£1.50 worth of damage?
Looks a most interesting game. A fascinating subject too.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like an excellent game Tim! Nice that it has such a special relevance for you!
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting, thanks for drawing attention to it.

ReplyDeleteIt says much that despite my biased solo play I still managed to have Montrose lose!
