It was very difficult to approach the defensive line of the French, since the large but unreliable Italian army was funnelled into a narrow defile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall the game was very enjoyable, but the rules showed their limits when playing with a large number of units. Some photos below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our next game will use Valour and Fortitude rules. There is a nice set of lists for the Italian Wars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41086\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6451.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41086\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6451.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6451-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41087\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6452.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41087\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6452.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6452-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41092\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6453.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41092\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6453.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6453-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41090\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6454.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41090\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6454.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6454-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41088\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6455.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41088\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6455.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6455-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41091\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6456.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41091\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6456.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6456-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41089\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6457.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6457.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6457-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"41093\" src=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6458.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41093\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6458.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/stefanov.no-ip.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_6458-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrea and I played yesterday an Italian Wars game using his marvellous figures and the Pikeman Lament rules.
