Let's play some Time of Legends: Joan of Arc with Léo and Benoit from Mythic Games, today we're playing the Battle of the Herrings.
Click here for more Joan of Arc
With Lent on it's way the English and Scots formed a warband to conquer France, yet with such little foodstock and a tight convoy cruising through the land it was bound for an opportune attack. During this battle, the Battle of Herrings, it was on this very day that a young French girl named Joan of Arc met with the Captain of Vaucoulers to explain of her divine purpose.
Remember, you can still pledge late for Time of Legends: Joan of Arc on their kickstarter page.
How would you attack the convoy of Herrings?
Fantastic. The Dice Gods (now there is a Pantheon) were not always kind but cagey Leo saw his opportunity and ran with it.
I would be inclined to have the pool of cubes in a tray and also roll the dice in a tray to minimise clutter. Great game guys.
Hope that fleeing towards the enemy was a rules error, And get a mat and dice box!
Very nice. The more I see, the more I understand the game mechanics. But, please, show us a game where a city is attacked, besieged, burnt to the ground. Archers on walls, crossbowmen shooting back, knights charging with lances, war machines creaking and this time Benoit winning.
Prêt pour attaque.
Enjoyed watching that. Some things to consider:
Dice trays are your friend, use them as often a possible.
Bring enough dice for everyone, not having enough dice is a serious geek crime 😀 .
Think about using the cage more for filming, there’s not really enough room around the Weekender table to do these games justice, it all looks a bit cramped on the small table.
I am soooo glad I backed this
Shark Attack
Please tell the English faction are not as weak as they seemed on this bat rep compared to the French and Scottish.
the French and Scottish were throwing a lot more reds and greens, the English didn’t stand a chance there
Another great game to watch. Can’t get enough of Leo in the studio 🙂
