Very nice Eric, must say when I read the title the first thing that went through my mind was some robber baron tossing monks off the battlements to make them reveal there treasure hoard.:)
Cheers happy gaming nice to see the plastics being used with gusto.

Very nice – I like your movement trays! Great design.

Wonderful BatRep and yes love the movement trays. Who makes those and how much?

Another variant of "His Nibs". Congratulations….

Believe it or not I hate the movement trays so I am pimping them up…

they come from Warbases

I have mixed feelings about the movement trays. On the one hand, it is much easier I am sure. On the other, you lose the feel and look of a skirmish game and it starts looking like a game of Warhammer with a paltry number of units.

Great War Ace04 Jun 2015 6:51 a.m. PST

Why use them at all? It's not like there are a huge number of minis to move in a game this size….

EricThe Shed04 Jun 2015 10:55 a.m. PST

We use the movement trays to speed up the game…

aesthetics came second

Thank you Eric The Shed for the "Monk on the Run" idea. I ran a Lion Rampant scenario for Camaraderie(Ladies Miniatures Gaming Club) using your idea as the basis then modified it a bit. The ladies had a blast! It was a nail biting game to the very last moment.

My pleasure Sir Mumsy…
