Finally a Comic Report, but something a little different. ;)I had a weekend game event at Lopez's we dubbed Violence in the Valley. We were lucky enough to have Clarence over at Quindia Studios come up and run a pre-release scenario of Beneath the Lily Banners.
I really enjoy reading his and Barry Hilton's takes on wargaming, and the period. Having never played the genre I was quite excited to learn from one of the co-authors.
Feel free to dive right in, or if you would like a little more background hop over and have a look here real quick. Enjoy M8's!
James is not my King we must defend this village from the ravages of the Jacobites!
well now that's a bit of fucking magic to brighten a dreary Thursday afternoon! the game looks fantastic visually and also looks a lot of fun to play, and the dialogue between the characters is brilliant! cant wait for the next bleedin instalment!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rochie I'm glad I got ti right with the dialogue. ;)
DeleteConsider my appetite well and truly whetted (although I don't think Lopez is gonna be happy with that last pic of his head!)
ReplyDeleteHahaha I take pics of it every chance i get. Wait for the WFB report. LOL Ya your gonna have to get in on this. It's a super fun period.
DeleteIt's not going to take a he'll of a lot of convincing
DeleteUnusual, creative and superb report...what's not to like? Excellent...
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil.
DeleteOk, Ok, OKAY
ReplyDeleteStop yelling, I'm totally convinced I need to do my reports in comic life from now on. It just looks to compelling to resist any longer.
It's a lot of work, but well worth it imo, I really prefer Comic Life 1, over thenew one. It is easier and much quicker to use. Let me know if you need any help or have questions. ;)
DeleteGreat looking game. I can't wait to play Donnyhammer again, even though these are the straight up rules. As I read this "Follow me up to Carlow" by Planxty was playing in my head. No clue what war it's about. "Rooster of a fighting stock, would you let a Saxon cock, crow out upon an Irish rock? Fly up and teach him manners!" https://youtu.be/tvECtlJQ4dU
ReplyDeleteYa I'm really getting some ideas for Donnyhammer from this game. I think we can develop this for lots of uses.
DeleteMy bald spot is becoming a recurring character in your comics
ReplyDeleteIt might up end up my ‘part three’...
DeleteIt's gonna be in the WFB one as well. LMAO
DeleteYou have a way with words Sir Arthur... no wonder the Williamites finally won
ReplyDeleteThanks Barry. I'm really hoping on developing his character and maybe extending his career past the historical point. I need to get my army started. ;)
DeleteVery cool!
ReplyDelete;)
DeleteWow, that's a great set of armies.
ReplyDeleteLove some Jacobite action. Grandparents used to live not far from Culloden and it's smashing museum. Eerie place to visit though. Made me almost start a Jacobites project (Though I know this one looks to be a later period than the Battle of Culloden.).
Looking forward to part two!
Thanks Dai.....I've been giving myself a crash course in the period all week. Clarence has been very helpful with any questions so far. I think I'm going to do Rawdon's force for myself, which can attach to any other Williamite force as needed. ;)
DeleteThis one is earlier than culloden by about 55 years
DeleteGoes to show how lacking my knowledge of the period is.... O_o
DeleteThanks WP.
so sweet...
ReplyDeleteThanks Blue
