Yesterday, Glenn and I tried out Pikeman's Lament at Discover Games. 40 points each. There quite a few subtle differences between it and Lion Rampant. Good and Bad things happen if you roll 2 or 12 to activate a uni. There are three types of cavalry, Trotters, Gallopers and Dragoons, all with their perks and drawbacks.This is defiantly a shooting game and artillery can lay a pounding. But Pikes and Forlorn Hopes can be very nasty! There is a also a loose campaign system that follows your force commander. Two thumbs up from me and Glenn.
