Quick note from Erik: Please see further down for an explanation of how the game works!

As the new guy, it has been "requested" of me to write an After Action Report.
We start with the first scenario in the War of the Roses, Lancastrians. It seems straight forward. Capture Ludford Bridge and secure the other side. And if you don't fiddle around it is. This I've have learned this after a few awkward tries...

But here is the set up.

The quickest way to go is join your territories and then take out the knight.

The next Scenario is a bit more challenging. Wakefield, or Sandal Castle needs to be taken as quickly as possible. The enemy is surrounded, but you need to get in before time is up.

I cut them off to force a surrender in his units, but I lose some to his response

After a couple more turns, pushing with my best men I had better control of this area.

After a couple more turns of pushing, he tried to get behind me, but I cut him off again.

I have some recurring problems with an Arquebusier that I need a knight to handle.
