Monday night Maurice ran a Galleys, Guns & Glory game, we had a Christian fleet led by a floating castle (a Galleass) against an Turkish fleet assisted by a swarm of Corsair vessels!
The Turks deployed in two wings and the Christians deployed centrally then concentrated against the Turkish right while screening their left with a handful of Galleys. Whilst the screening fleet was hammered it allowed the Christian left to obliterate the main Turkish force.
Four small Christian Galleys were sunk and two captured and the Turks lost 3 massive Laternas and 3 smaller Galleys captured and two more Galleys sunk, amongst the Turkish losses was their Fleet Commander! A victory to the forces of good!
A good set of rules which I'm sure we'll play again. Also I must point of Maurice's fleets were great and magnificently painted.
A few Pictures from the night...
The Christian fleet rows into action!
The Christian Galleass 'inches' forward!
The reinforced Christian left meets the Turkish right, the Turkish are nearer the top of the picture...
With the Turks right smashed the Christian Galleass turns to face the remainder of the Turkish fleet that wisely fled!
