Pike & Shotte GHS February Game

Pike & Shotte: GHS Febraury Game

The GHS group always enjoys big games using Pike & Shotte from Warlord Games. Mark organized their latest game, set during the Thirty Years War.

The game saw an outnumbered Protestant force staring down a much larger Catholic force, trying to tie them up long enough to cover their retreat.

The Catholics had trouble coordinating their attacks despite their numbers, but were eventually able to force a Protestant retreat. Great fun.
