Great report and I hope when pulled together by Martin with our reports should make a good article for publication.

BTW I like the web site, very colourful and a good way of linking Yahoo to one web portal for your group of players.

By gum. That King rufus is a fly one! Getting his spin on things before the report of the battle comes out. At least he admits it was a defeat though.

You don't, because one was never done. On this basis I think we can say that King Rufus triumphed at Metz! An outrageous calumny, it must be admitted.

Personally, I'm moving away from producing AARs, as they a take time I'd rather spend on designing scenarios and playing. Don't want to discourage others though....I do enjoy reading them.

I think a brief summation helps the forum gel among the different members - we all like getting a bit of the flavour and some outlines might help stimulate others to think up a new scenario.
