Jack: She is in the battle.
Me: What is she doing?
Gus: She is protecting the knights.
Me: Oh. O.K. Don't break her.
The boys informed me that the priest in the battle did not make it. Note the dead guy behind Guadalupe.

The Battle of Guadalupe
Me: Boys, why is my Virgin statue in the middle of your Playmobile guys?
Jack: She is in the battle.
Me: What is she doing?
Gus: She is protecting the knights.
Me: Oh. O.K. Don't break her.
The boys informed me that the priest in the battle did not make it. Note the dead guy behind Guadalupe.

Hmmm...interesting choice of casualty by the boys.
This one is a Blue Ribbon.
Uncle Gabriel reads your Blog and thinks its hilarious

If it's any consolation, it wouldn't actually be a priest who got killed, but a lay brother. Clerics were prohibited from fighting (the casualty looks like a Hospitaller or perhaps a Teutonic knight), but the un-ordained friars of the military orders did. That's the great thing about toy soldiers: they're educational!
You know, I DID find it a bit disturbing that the priest died. No doubt he died a martyr.
I was more concerned that they had heard you and I snickering about the likely existence of homilies.com a few weeks back...
