The Lord, The Lady, The Lover and The Rogue

 


Just back from the Border Reiver show. The game seemed well received with plenty of visitors and lots of conversations being had. We were all set up for the show starting at 10am, we managed to get through nearly 2 games, though I only took photos of the first.

The Lady and her escort

Thom's magnificent Keep

The Lord emerges with part of his retinue

The Lover arrives

The Rogue emerges from the woods

Foot and mounted serjeants clash in the village

More outlaws start to engage the escort

The Lord's retinue rushing slowly to his Lady

Outlaws see off the mounted serjeants

The Lover's retinue move through the village

Outlaws ransack a building

And another one goes up in flames

More burning buildings

The escort meets up with troops from the Lord's retinue

The Lord and Lady united

The end

The smoke markers from Thom were superb for highlighting the burning buildings, those and his 3d printed keep were popular talking points.

I did mange to get around the show to pick up a small amount of loot.

Some second hand peasant spearman to expand the retinue. A Blacksmith and a dwarf warrior from Reaper Bones, some Franco Prussian War Landwher, enough for two small regiments. I also pick up some brushes for Mitch. Overall a good day

  1. Great stuff Scotty, I love the "poster" for the game - an AI creation I am guessing!
    You must have been in a bit of a hurry with the pics as a lot of them are a bit blurry, which is a shame because it looked like a really cool game with great terrain and figures.
    Nice bit of loot at the end, too.

    1. Cheers Keith, the poster was AI, came out well. The photos are not the best, the 6ft width of the table didn't help reaching over with a dodgy mobile

  2. Lovely looking game. Really like the burning buildings and castle. Cracking good fun by the looks of it.
