It helps greatly if you don't go for the whole 'all my units must be veteran' approach, too. <br /><br />Having said that, aiming for a go at <a href="http://perfectcaptain.50megs.com/vcactions.html" rel="nofollow">Very Civile Actions</a> later in February - the club campaign will use Tinker Fox for the campaign management.Mike Whitakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165272678144625943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-78579043729650654032012-01-31T12:32:40.161+00:002012-01-31T12:32:40.161+00:00What do you make of the WECW rules?

I didn't think it would drive off both, but it came close. Ultimately, I think it came down to the fact that Rupert is a tough SoB and was riding around at the head of the best cavalry unit on the table :DMike Whitakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165272678144625943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-44540803096706715642012-01-31T09:46:43.127+00:002012-01-31T09:46:43.127+00:00Its a great little battle.
