I ran a Battle of Bouvines game at Historicon last week with my new rules "Vows of Iron". I took a few photos of the game before we started. I meant to take photos as we went and completely forgot! The movement bases are an idea that I came up with and had a company make some prototypes for me(I have posted photos of them on TMP a while back). The bases hold single based figures and have a built in dial in the back of the base for tracking casualties (fatigue in my game). The game was very exciting and came down to the last turn with the outcome still in doubt. In the end, the French won a hard fought battle but left the field bloodied. Here is the link to my photobucket. link Allen |

Nifty idea for the bases. Good looking game. |

Were I commander of the French, I could have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.  I played at Cold Wars. Seriously, it is a very fun game. Simple mechanics from beginning to end. You can understand the rules even after a few beers. I had to miss this battle. Seems I missed a good time. John |
