Raid on St Bawdwick's Abbey

 Scenario I — Raid on St Bawdwick's Abbey

Type: Bloodbath or The Raid
The Earl of Bellend raids the Abbey.
Effects: Bellend win = Arsingford loses 1 territory
The 15mm Anglo Normans.  I forgot that I had these guys!


THE EARL’S FEUD –  LION RAMPANT 

The County of Cockshire 1175

Scenario I — Raid on St Bawdwick's Abbey

Type: Bloodbath or The Raid
Bellend raids the Abbey.
Effects: Bellend win = Arsingford loses 1 territory

Two mounted units, two spear foot units and two archer units each!

Bellend advances aggressively.

I marked the command bases with an additional foot standard, but also name tagged the leaders.




But Arsingford fails the action test to move repeatedly

Bellend does get shot at however.  Lion Rampant has casualty removal so I'm taking bases off and using micro dice to indicate part base losses.


Bellend gets stuck in, killing a base of 4 spearmen and losing a mounted knight.

Bellend's bowmen hold up well against the bigger crossbow unit.

Arsingford failure to move allows the Bellend foot to bait him onto a spear wall.

The results are predictable.  The knights bounce.  Arsingford gives it up and quits the field.  Bellend claims the Abbey territory.
