As a follow up I played this for the first time tonight at a friend's house. Before I left, I grabbed the board and rules from the base game which I nearly forgot to do. However - cue Robot from Lost in Space "Warning Will Robinson - warning" -- you will need some of the blocks for certain unit types when you play this expansion. The back of the expansion does states it is not a complete game, and you need the base game. I stupidly thought it meant you needed the base rules and the board. However, in my defense, I did not note anywhere in the expansion rules that the blocks from the base game were also needed. I stickered this a few weeks ago and did not look closely at the scenarios - my bad there. Only when I got to my friend's house and started setting up did I realize I was missing whole unit types for both sides. We made do with what we had. I won as the Crusaders at Hab 7 to 2. I really like this expansion and hopefully there is more to follow.
I actually like Medieval the best of all the C & C games that I won (Ancients, Mem 44, Nappy and Samauri Battles along with Battle Cry). I am just waiting for someone to build a Vassal module for this expansion.

Thanks. I got my copy & just stickered all of the blocks. I will mess around with it solitaire and see how it goes.
👍
My man... have you not any others to play with?
Perhaps we could play via e-mail/YT or such?
