Impromptu Sunday morning game.


'A' rang me and said-"are you free for a game this morning" ?  , well my wife being at work and the dog already walked I said "yes" (ignoring the gardening I should have been doing).


He had recently taken delivery of some 15mm  Wofun 2D Caesarian Romans and swiftly having based them up he wanted to give them a spin using the free Andrew Callan rules. Here is my force under Pompey deployed, 6 units of Legionaries in the center , some slingers on the far flank and some Gallic cavalry nearest the camera.


'A' deploying his force under Julius Caesar , some Legionaries and a Scorpion bolt thrower.


His Numidian light cavalry on the right flank (he needs to fill in the bases and perhaps ink in the edges.


The rear of my position , the battle being fast and furious I forgot to take any photos of the action - but I lost narrowly - snatching defeat from the jaws of victory ! . A great game and a great way to spend a Sunday morning .


I don't often appear in my blog posts - this is not misplaced vanity , but it's because I'm taking the photos . "A" sent me this one of his.

  4. If you don't mind the 2D aspect they are a quick way of getting ready painted armies .

  5. Very good looking game--the WoFun temptation grows stronger. Sometimes, it's good to just game and not think about pictures (and if you are too involved to take them, same thing, sort of).
