Finuval Plain: Sifting through the aftermath

The battle of Finuval Plain was now a few days ago, and I've had some time to recover from what was a pretty hectic day (and a fairly frenetic lead-up to it, as well). Of course, now I am left to sort through the notes and photos we took, and try to make heads or tails of the game. For a normal game of 2500 points or so, this is not a big deal. When there is 10 times that much stuff on the table, it's a lot of work. So you will have to bear with me as I get moving and start to put the battle report together. As with Hel Fenn, it will doubtless be posted a bit at a time as I make progress. In the meantime, here are a few teaser photos (I took over 550 pictures, though not all of them worked out as I might have hoped).

Still setting up... What a mess.

The big gribblies involved in the battle. Dragons and Hydras and Phoenixes, oh my!

The duel at the start of the battle: Prince Tyrion vs Urian Poisonblade

And a bit of a snapshot of the action. Yes, that is 7 Hydras, all in a row.

As well as his army, Hamish brought along some beautiful scenery, some of which we were able to make use of.

You may also notice that I have shifted the menus across to the left. This is to hopefully allow me to post some bigger pictures without everything crashing into itself. It's like progress!
