We're Back to the Middle Ages (in 15mm)!
After a long period dedicated to the chaos of the battlefields of the Thirty Years' War and 28mm scale, we marched our miniatures back to the medieval battlefield—this time, in 15mm.
In our latest session, we dusted off Basic Impetus 2.0: Luca’s Aretine Communals faced off against a Catalan-Aragonese host. The latter was assembled by combining my own army with some timely reinforcements from Giacomo’s ongoing Scaligeri's project.
We’ll admit it up front—some of the bases weren’t fully finished (mea culpa!), but the game spirit was very much alive.
Without diving into too many gameplay details, we found Basic Impetus 2.0 easy to pick back up after the break. In just a few hours, we were deep into a balanced and exciting battle that delivered a clear—but far from predictable—result. The Aretines ultimately had to retreat after suffering heavy losses, their fate sealed by a decisive Almughavar charge that shattered the mercenary heavy cavalry.
And now? Well, the fever has spread. Everyone at the club is already scouring 15mm manufacturer catalogues, dreaming up ways to finish off their current armies... or field entirely new ones.
More to come soon—stay tuned!
