DBA Early Crusaders vs Ayyubid Egyptian

Greetings!!!  It's been far to long, but we've managed to have a game of DBA.  To be fair the horrors are growing up & doing what teenagers do.   Gaming has been non-existent, so what has MrF been up to?  Creating, painting & SELLING DBA Armies, a shed load as well.  Keeps an interest in the hobby & raises funds for other projects too.  Though my eyesight & steady painting hand aren't what they used to be...old fart.

Anyway, Early Crusaders vs Ayyubid Egyptians, turned out to be a very short game indeed. Amy took the Early Crusaders, recently created by ourselves.

Jerusalem is in sight! God Wills It!

Mighty Ayyubids

Crusaders, Knights & Spears abound

Gotta love the Ayyubid Cavalry

Frankish Knights advance

Forward!

There's no open flank for the Light Cavalry

THUD!  First blood to the Crusaders!

Kapow! Another Kill...

The battle is in full swing..

God Wills It!  The road to Jerusalem is open....


Well MrF came on in the same old style, so Amy whooped him in the same old style.......
