In a report spanning 5 pages and almost 10,000 words, you can revel in the exploits of possibly the blandest army ever to take the field on this website, the Dutch (of the 80 Years War – no, me neither) as they duplicate their World Cup heroics and take on a limited themed pool of other similar but generally better armies in a competition in which the last army to be used was the decidedly non-dull Pirates.

Have a look at whether lots of average troops can actually take on lots of Superior ones – and be amazed at how infrequently a 35 point ship can feature in 5 consecutive battle reports.

Wake up and Smell the Edam !!

It's been a while since I last read one, but I really like your battle reports, especially the commentary by the commanders at the end.

Schplendid reports. With hindsight, wouldn't it have been better (for your army, not the spectacle) to have used those 35 points for an extra TC rather than the ship?

Whoo! Looking forward to a good read.

With hindsight…knowing it was on table 1 time out of 5 and played no part in that game anyway … probably yes!

However, if it hadn't been for the ship, I probably wouldn't have taken the army at all :-)
