After a couple years (and a pandemic) we were able to place our Thirty Years War armies on the gaming table. It was a simple face to face 1000 points scenario aimed to re-learn the rules.
The armies in the pictures are the majestically painted Luca's Catholic Imperial Army and my Swedish (I bought them painted except artillery and one general). I totally forgot to use my generals' virtues and traits and a couple mistakes were made. However, we enjoyed the ruleset which provides a challenging yet easy way to represent TYW battles. The final result was a Swedish army refusing to collapse against odds and let the Swedish gain a small edge against the tired Imperial troops. A special mention goes to the Scottish infantry on the Swedish right flank, which survived two break tests in a row with four "six" rolled, making the Imperial leader leave the field undefeated but unsettled.
Some great looking figures.
