Among the many local castles, the best are Chepstow, Raglan, White Castle (at Llantilio Croesenny) and Caerphilly. Caerphilly castle has a permanent exhibition of full size working medieval siege engines including ballista, mangonel, trebuchet and perrier. The Welsh Folk Museum at St. Fagans is worth a visit.

If Phil is using the same email address he gave me it is missing the .uk off at the end.

The link at point 10 of the FoG rules part of the pages is corrupted. It opens as

"rbs@byzant.demon.uk "

The link further down the same page is fine.

Obviously just attention to detaill!

Any way Richard where are the R&R? You've had them at least 6 days, and I know you've not been busy as you've had chance to peruse these forums.

At least I know Dave Ruddock is using some questionable Chinese army that wouldn't know a lance even if they placed it in the ground in front of them.

I'll start

French Hugenot

That would be start the confusion then Tim?

Me and Ian Stewart - Xi Xia
Dave Ruddock and Martin - Western Han

Could you add any more Richard, since you should have the rest?

Kevin Johnson/Steve Royle - TYW French

Yeah, but it cheats 'cos it can have loads of LH and stakes to keep proper mounted away.
