Little Rejects v Dad

I had a bit of a surprise last week, my No3 daughter Holly, started up a conversation about wargaming??? Now normally she slates her Dads hobby (just like her mum!) then much to my amazement asked she could have a game.  Oh my God!!! So I had a chat with von Postie and a day and time was set. No4 daughter Nieve was feeling a little left out and wanted to come along as well. How could I say no??

Holly & Nieve

Holly wanted to " Do a Tudor's game" So Postie set up a simple Border Reiver game. It was the Girls v Dad. They played the Scots who recently plundered south of the border and were heading home with their ill gotton gains. While I played the English Lord who'd been plundered.

All Holly & Nieve had to do was exit the far end of the table with as much booty as they could.

While I had to stop them.

The girls picked up the rules very quickly.........perhaps a bit too quick???

The girls did the right thing and moved their loaded wagon full move, and took a few pot-shots at long range, missing all of them!

I charged forward with my Horse.

And won one fight and drew the other.

I won the next turn and charged in again with the rest of my horse, the girls did the same.

Both sides lost a few casualties

And it looked as though I was gaining the upper hand

I went in for the kill, and charged my leader into Nieve's leader, then also hit him 

from the back.

And in typical Ray dice mode I got my butt whooped

11-4

Which equaled 2 very happy Little Rejects
