It's a bright sunny Saturday afternoon. Time to head for the basement and dust off my Anglo-Irish for another round of L' Art de la Guerre.
Tommy Worden elected to run 100 Years War French
So its Irish, English, Welsh, Scottish, Burgundians, Bretange, French and Cat, all in one field.
Truth be told, after a couple of weeks sleeping in the mud, they all look the same

Nice write up! I am impressed by the Anglo-Irish, they generally have a poor reputation, but you are doing them proud!

A while ago I was asked, by a superior player, "Have you ever won with this army"? Well, since I write up most of the games, I have a record and I started counting, and my personal win loss rate was 40%. Not bad for an irritatingly diverse army with weak command control.
That is a while ago, and I am not going to winnow through the records but the statistics on the the official ALDG site are wins 79, losses 75, draws 51. For a 51% efficacy. http://www.artdelaguerre.fr/adlg/v3/?/en/statistics/armies
