We had a sheep kidnapped from the nearby sheepfield a few days ago, shot in a different field, gutted and remains left behind. But that's nothing to do with rocks, sorry.

Mine were replaced (by one Timmo, formerly of this parish) with brass wire, sharpened/flattened into a spear point at the business end. During an early game with one batch, I felt a sharp pain in the side of one of my front paws, looked down, and saw several bases of pikemen suspended, vertically (and right way up) from where they had become so deeply embedded in my hand that even gravity had no effect on them. I made out it was a new way of moving massed bases of pike across a table surface that didn't permit "sliding", but from the gales of laughter I don't think anyone was fooled. Pulling them out was, if anything, slightly more painful.....
