At the club this week, my first game of Snorkers(Good Oh!) from In Which They Served Games, a clash in the Far East. Despite the Kako taking heavy damage the long lances eventually decimated the US fleet. Absolutely loved the game too! #wargames #snorkersgoodoh #wargamers #navalwargames

Following on my previous post for #Ecorcheurs Sir Robert's retinue I wanted a French retinue for him to encounter on the battlefield of Agincourt, so I give you Jean Quiéret dit Rifflart. Focussed on Hundred Years War but approach should work with Baron's War et al. #wargaming #HYW #medieval
