Not afraid of Byron just thought it was unfair on him to have to go all that way to fight me, after all if I survive the impact I am then + or ++ if fighting his back rank. Instead I get Stephen Stead and his Tauregs, will see if Japanese can do as well as 15th C French as that is what fought them at Campaign.

Unfortunately Alasdair's Arabs met Ben's Samurai which is a nasty match up. Despite Alasdair initiating 24 separate charges the samurai stood firm. At the end of the day this allowed a couple of leapfrogs with the final order being:-

1) Ben Jones
2)Stephen Stead
3) Simon Le (submarine)-Ray Meyer

In the 25mm I was triumphant! Order was:-

1) Don (not the Don) Avis
2) Dave Allen
3=) Jim Gibson
3=) Ray Boyles.

See you all at Central London and Britcon.

Ben (aka the new shogun): did your list have the heavy foot samurai option? If so is it actually worth the points? Of course in a comp with lots of shot, but against curriasieurs atleast the unit is not out armoured...

I'm wondering wether to drop a unit of armd warriors to be able upgrade my other 24 bases to heavy armour?

Nigel,

For 1pt taking the Heavy armour is a no brainier option. Don't leave home without it. Take the max! It's your only hope if hit by pistol/pistol cavalry!
