ECW - resurrection after 40 years
The BatRep!
Initial PositionsSo, the Battle Report, which will be presented after each Turn “Live”. I am a solo player and ofter have hours between moves as the real world gets in the way, so trying to complete the entire game in one go should be a challenge for me!
The game is more about trying out different ideas and testing the rules, so I’m sure there will be lots of things I’ll eventually change. But as some commentators asked for a run through. Here goes.
The scenario id an uneven fight between an invading English force which has taken a town in the early years of the first ECW. A Covenanter army has been quickly raised to drive the “Auld Enemy” from Scotland.
There are no points involved, and the imbalance is deliberate. The two sides have different establishments; the English far superior Cavalry (in both numbers and quality), and the Covenanters have more infantry and a small Highland contingent.
The forces have different objectives: The English have to have at least 50% of their initial force still on the table at the end of 7 turns. The Scots have to have either driven the English from the field, or have taken at least 50% of the English army.
May the best side win!
