I don't have any more details for this game at the moment, if any of the participants would like to help with a write-up, I'm happy to add it.
Tim Myall (IV/79 Later Swiss) vs Peter Hockaday (IV/13 Medieval German)
DBM version 3.1 at 400 AP, 26th April 2009
Both armies from 1479 AD or so.
The situation at the start of the game with the armies deployed, Tim's army being nearest the camera. The arrow bottom right indicates a strong wind blowing towards the Germans.
The same situation from the south of the battlefield.

The same but from Tim's side of the table.
Turn 3 combat starts looking along the table.

Battle joined in the centre as Tim's Swiss pike on the left contact Peter's pike on the right.
The same but slightly closer.
Battle is joined all along the the line as the Swiss pike on the left contact the main German battle line.
