Getting to Grips with Baron's War

The second introductory game of Baron’s War down at Central London Wargames Club started cautiously as both sides sized each other up across a contested village. It was a doubles game we were getting to grips with the ‘you go I go’ mechanics and the various reactions that are available to units.


The key moment in the game came when the beautifully lined up planned charge by the our Noble Lord and his Retinue of Knights. Unfortunately they were roundly defeated and routed back putting us on to the back foot.



Following this set back it became very difficult to hold the objectives on the left flank despite a valiant effort from the mounted serjeants who defended it as best they could but were eventually pushed of the objective by repeated charges and attacks from three units. While the levy shepishly stood off from the  enemy serjaents holding the chuch. Next time I'll just pile in with everybody.
