First game of the year, Pikeman's Lament (first time playing) using Samurai.
We have begun the 4 x ? Challenge for 2018, where we will try to play 4 games of a ruleset to get a good handle on it.
Until then i will reserve final judgement. Game 1 of Pikeman's Lament was played between Dan and I. We used Samurai, but as I don't have enough painted you will notice I have committed the grievous wargaming sin of using unpainted miniatures!😲
We used the meeting engagement scenario. Each side had 2 units of shot, 1 unit of pike and 1 forlorn hope (samurai).
The game ended in a cinematic single samurai vs pike unit combat that saw them both destroyed.
The game was a draw on points. Both our leaders fell (one wounded, one captured).
We both agreed we would play it again, and drink more Sapporo.
