A musical treat as the long anticipated Abba/The Hives mashup comes to fruition as the Swedes attempt to reach heights of competence rarely seen, in 4 reports from Warfare 2013, taking on more Swedes, some Royalists and two lots of Spaniards..



Are the mighty Swedes going to prove to be Super Troopers? Or will it be a case of Hate to Say I Told You So yet again..?

(Note for regular readers, this report also features the apparently warmly welcomed return of Princess Madeleine of Sweden as leader of the Swedish forces in the post match commentary).

Thanks Tim for another great report.

Cheered me up on a cold Sunday morning.

Once again great reports with photos of a nicely painted army. Shame I had not read these reports before I submitted my list for last weekend's fun...

Great to see the Swedish Princess making a return...

Shocked by your behaviour in the last game - no attempt at all to use your artillery in an unhistorical anti-mounted role

Very disappointing ...

Actually, 2 1/2 games out of 4 !

4 shooting dice, 2 of which being gunnes ignored the protective effect of the enclosed field.

Don't know if H picked up on this, but while Regimental Guns shoot all targets at evens, they then take the same tactical factors as other shooters...

But do they count as artillery for other tactical factors that only apply to artillery,e.g. the +POA for infantry in 3 or more ranks?

"Any rules applying to “artillery” do not apply to regimental guns." probably covers that.

Great reports, as usual. Thanks!

Tim, the link in your battle reports section of your website goes to the wrong tournament.
