El Cid at Partizan 2021 (1)

 On Sunday I was lucky enough to be involved with Jame, Scrivs and Martin putting on a demo game at the Partizan show.
My first wargame show since Hammerhead eighteen months ago - days before the first lockdown came in to play.

We used James' Midgard rules, and James and Scrivs' collections (with a few of mine for good measure) to recreate the battle of Bairen.

I'm not going to to describe things much - I took loads of pictures of the eye candy - so that's what you're going to get...

In the historic battle the Moors peppered El Cid's forces with arrows from their boats off shore.

James made the sea from clear perspex - painted underneath and with modelling snow to create the waves on top.

That's the first lot of pictures, which takes us up to around lunchtime...

Plenty more to come.
