One Hour Wargames : Fantasy : Scenario 2

The other day, I decided it was time to get a suitably old school ground cloth form my fantasy figures. A few moments on the web, and a few days wait, and voila - a 36" square piece of felt in "sand".

Of course, I couldn't wait for the folds to work themselves out of the felt.  Instead, I shoved the clutter that had piled up on the folding table out of my way and set up a game. With 36" width, 9-12 element armies sounded reasonable. I used a deck of cards to determine army composition.

I randomly rolled Scenario 2 from One Hour Wargames - it's not one of my favorites, but I really just wanted to push figures around on the new felt.

The foliage has no effect other than aesthetic.

The lizard army, who I've renamed the Tolokok, had: 

• 4 units of Warband (they use the OHW Dark Age warband rules)
• 1 unit of Skirmishers (OHW Ancients skirmisher)
• 3 units of Archers (OHW Ancients archers)
• 1 Beast
• 1 Hero

The Tanitians fielded:

• 2 units of Heavy Infantry (OHW Ancients infantry)
• 4 units of Skirmishers (OHW Ancients skirmisher)
• 1 Beast
• 2 Heroes

Heroes and Beasts both get bonuses on their attacks and 1/2 damage received. So, it's not as unbalanced as this looks.

A hero and two Heavy Infantry units dominated the lizard beast and warbands 

Small but mighty. He would slay the beast.

The Tantians pushed their heavy infantry to take the hill while the skirmishers were left to hold the crossroads. Meanwhile the lizard skirmishers and remaining archers attacked the crossroads. When the battle ended, the Tanitians held the hill and the Tokolok held the crossroads. A tie.
