Art De La Guerre

[madaxeman]

In these 6 all new, all singing and flamenco-dancing battle reports you can thrill, gasp, gag and feel mildy queasy all at the same time as you read the epic tale of how a 15mm Khurasanian army fared as it took to the stage at an international L'Art de la Guerre event held in sunny Spain back in April of this year.



As usual there are plenty of nonsensical historical "facts" (ahem) about the armies in play, a smattering of vaguely related videos, and loads of pictures of 15mm toy soldiers verbally harassing both me, and one another.



This time however the Khursanian army is commanded by none other than Frank Zappa alter-ego Sheikh Yabouti, leading to some rather hippie-esque post match analysis, including almost enough 1970's references to make up for the near-total lack of self-reflection and self-awareness of his own role in his many downfalls.



Nasty Medieval Hannibal also has his say as a counterpoint to the Sheikh's nonsense - and as usual he lands far more punches than he pulls.



In a brand new, international-reader-friendly initiative I have (OK, AI has..) managed to translate all 6 of the reports into the languages of my opponents (3 into Spanish, 1 into German, 1 into Portuguese and 1 into....Australian!)



So, pop a shrimp on the barbie, pull up a chair, slice yourself a chorizo, break open the Hob-nobs and pop a tinned sardine on top as you prepare to read through all 6 (or more, if you also read the Australian one!) Madaxeman battle reports!

Game 1 Khurasanian vs Ghaznavid (also in Spanish)
Game 2 Khurasanian vs Ottoman Empire (also in German)
Game 3 Khurasanian vs Mongol Empire (also in Portuguese)
Game 4 Khurasanian vs Wars of the Roses (also in Spanish)
Game 5 Khurasanian vs Mongol Empire (also in Spanish)
Game 6 Khurasanian vs French Ordonnance (and also in Australian )



(Over the next few days and weeks I will also be publishing some Spanish Military Tourism videos, using photos taken during our trip to Madrid and the surrounding towns, so look out for those as well)
