I learned that:
- Steady Pikes are nails
- That Longbows are seriously durable even against Heavy Foot & can rain on a Cataphract's Parade when they start shooting
- Marching Order & placement is important
- BG's can get isolated & need prompt support
- Shooting skirmishers is harder than you'd think
- Elephants are not as scary to Knights as they are to Foot
- Flank Marches are seriously risky unless you have a FC with them & even then it's dicey
- Rallying off Rout Markers is tricky but can be done
- Don't get your BG's caught in a trafficjam
- Undrilled Trops need a General in the vicinity if they want to do any kind of maneouvre
Looking forward to more games already & play at Usk in the FoG section!
A big thanks to Damian who walked me through the Rules very quickly & also has superbly painted figures!
Cheers,
