Castle Siege in Larchmont

Hi all,
Here are a few photos from the HYW castle game at the Larchmont, NY library on Sunday.  The castle siege is always popular, so one of the Next Gen tables at Historicon will be running ongoing siege games as part of our convention kids program.
One funny moment occurred when the English captured one of the towers that held a French catapult.  They turned the catapult on the main French gate tower and destroyed that catapult as well.
Both English siege towers then reached the wall (usually at least one gets knocked out).  The French held out in a few sections, but there were too many breakthroughs overall and they had to surrender.
This was our last scheduled event in Larchmont, but I just received an email last night from the library director asking to extend our contract for the summer session.  Pretty cool.
Enjoy the photos!
