Art De La Guerre

[madaxeman]

This year's Kegworth Codgers event was themed for the years in which Kegworth Church was (broadly speaking) built, namely 1200-1299, with a mix of Christian and non-Christian armies who would have clashed in Europe and the Middle East being permitted. With mostly "Christian" armies entered, I opted to balance the books a little with a Berber army, also fitting in 2 Almughavars which were newly painted.

This meant I ended up with a list who's key attributes were a solid core of spearmen, with a more punchy Almughavars + Javelinmen block to take on terrain and elephants (of which it turned out there were none), a wing command with Medium Cavalry Javelin Elite and some supporting foot, and a third command of 3 Impetuous Medium Knights in reserve to find a suitable gap to aim for and punch through - in theory.



The lists for the Berbers and all of the other armies in these reports from Kegworth Codgers 2025 can be seen here in the L'Art de la Guerre Wiki.

So, with a trip up the M1 achieved, and a decent few pints on the Monday evening before this midweek extravaganza began, The 2025 Kegworth Codgers Competition was soon playing host to the Berbers

You can either watch the battle reports embedded on madaxeman.com here, or on YouTube on a playlist where you can watch them fullscreen and they will all play in order.

(With my first game being against the UK ADLG Circuit's Man of Metal, there are also a number of appearances from some of his favourite Medieval-themed Heavy Metal bands for you to to look out for.)
