I have used these figures for about six years but have never actually re-fought the battle itself. Well now's the time! Rather pic heavy I'm afraid but you may find it interesting:
Plenty (and I mean plenty) more pictures here: linkDave. |

Very good!I am just down the road from you -- in Stakeford! I have always liked this period of Medieval history and have always wanted to see Otterburn wargamed! Thanks! |

Inspiring work! I always admire those who put the time into researching the "Rolls" as it were
a true labor of love. I also appreciate the occasional "historical re-fight". Granted, sometimes the circumstances or initial choices stack the deck to the extent that things are a forgone conclusion
BUT
One never knows when a different turn of luck (death of a commander, etc.) might have steered history down a far different path. Thanks for sharing. |

Herkybird, do try to call in to the Border Riever club. We meet on a Wednesday 0700 till about 1000 at Blagdon Hall south of Stannington, you'd be very welcome. Thanks Longshot, your right, all types of games have their place in our hobby, but I do particularly enjoy the challenge of trying to change history. Dave. |

Very nicely done! Your figures are beautiful. Who made the church by the way? |

Rampantlion, I haven't a clue, had it for years! Dave. |
rampantlion | 27 May 2014 1:27 p.m. PST |
Thanks Dave, just as well, I would just go buy it anyway, and I already have one! |

I have a 28mm church that is
not this exact one. I am a sucker for medieval churches, I bet I have 20 in 6mm, 15mm and 28mm total. Silly. |

Late to the party as usual….I think the church may be from Ian Weekley. |

Hi Chris, thanks for the response. I checked Magister Militum and saw one medieval church. It has a slate roof and the tower is different. Maybe it is an Ian Weekly that is now out of production?? |
