L'Art De La Guerre a triple outing (and extreme sadness)

Game at Stephens today and he choose to give LADLG an outing (not played since January) and we managed 3 games.

First up I used my Minoans versus Hittites, then it was my Avars versus Carolingians (under Charlemagne) and finally the Avars again against Thematic Byzantines.

Great to get 3 games played in a single day (second game was very quick) with fun set of rules.

Needless to say I lost all 3 although the Chariot game was pretty close.


























Such tragic events this week in Southport (a lovely spot I have visited a few times) with insane and brutal murder of those three innocent little girls (hopefully other victims will fully recover at least physically).

Police saying it is not terrorist related but it most certainly has that 'feel'. 

Incomprehensible what motive for this madness by a 17 year old !!!!

  1. That's a lot of gaming in a day... and a lot of sorrow on another. It is difficult to understand what motivates such heinous acts.

    1. LADG is generally quick playing (mainly due to petite size of games).
      I have sadly seen a good deal of violent acts/deaths but always so much more impactful when youngsters involved.

  2. A great looking game and the events at Southport are truly awful. What is the world coming too?

    1. Been a while since our Ancients chaps been in action. Southport truly awful, sadly things like that happen all too frequently but when its youngsters it hits home so much more.
