Hannover FoGR

A wargaming club in Hannover put on their first FoGR comp and I went over to say hi.

I've never been to Hannover and what can I say, German Beer!

So, I dusted off the 30 Years War Germans and my new Castle baggage and made the journey over

Here is the runners and riders

Dave Allen – West Sudanese
Bodo Listner – Later TYW German
Stefan Liedtke – Later Luis XIV French
Andreas Grunwald – Kalmar Union
Frank Bauer – Early TYW Swedish
Thomas Peters – Kalmar Union
Martin Wirt – Mongol
Simon Lenz – Italian States
„Strand“ – Mughal
Ulrich Göppel – Italian States
Simon LeRay-Meyer – Later TYW German
Jürgen Müller – Later TYW German
Sebastian Welkerling – Early TYW Swedish
Christian Pelka – LoA Anglo-Dutch
Olivier Todorovic - Early TYW German Catholic
Partrick Gehm - Caroline Imperialist

The result?

I WON!
