As it were, he was late in arriving so I spread my desert type mat. This is a Hotz 'Wild West' mat showing roads in a darker colour which we would incorporate by placing walls and buildings in the corners to hide these darker areas; creating "corners" to which we each would place our retinues. Having arrived, Will offered his very old fantasy catapult as the objective; the winner having moved it off his corner of the table by placing a unit onto and using that unit's move activation to maneuver it. Only Will finally made an effort at it, as the rest of us were simply attacking each other made interesting as we rolled for allied-manship and had each friendly retinue kitty-corner to each other.

In typical Rampant style, luck, dice and maybe good tactics produced an entertaining game. You can read more about it at Will's blog ( link ) as I will not bore you with a blow by blow.

On my part, my heavies had apparently armour the quality of tinfoil and swords made of wood. And my dice rolling...well..... The following photo speaks volumes .....
