Those pesky Barbary skirmishers again. Why can't they just stand still and fight like proper soldiers !!
Another great game.

Darn tricky things these night maneuvers. The German confederation have enough trouble issuing orders in the daylight !!
-
Note the eccentric though regularly seen tactic of von Wulfenbuttal deploying his cavalry in gun emplacements.
Obviously a great tactic, the French took one look at all the entrenched troops and left without firing a shot!!

The other game was Inis by Matagot games.

It is beginning to dawn on the Brunswick high command that maybe the Count has been promoted beyond his capacity.
Having had a glorious career as an Hussar officer he now finds himself attached to the artillery as an engineer. Just because he made a passing comment to the Duke about "Big bores" !!

Andy,
Lt Maurice also has the "Army Engineer" trait.

Two good games cheers Bryan
I see you neglected to point out that the Devastator got his revenge in game two by teleporting into Le Tommy's flank and giving him the full effect of his assault cannon .

Good game again, cheers.
The Count of Wolfenbuttal was latter heard to be complaining about some nervy/flighty horse he'd been mounted on. Apparently it had been captured with some Frenchie called Del'monte and at the first gun shot it had fled the field with the Count hanging on for dear life and the Hussars following, presumably thinking this was some great tactical flanking move by the Count. Obviously the horse had never seen a battle before.

Hi Rick,
Welcome, hope to see you tonight then.

Great game to kick off the campaign. Cheers Bryan

I may have gone over the top with the French...
Considering none of your Frenchmen have yet stepped onto a battlefield you could be right !!
But very impressive though.
-
Yes please up for this.
-
Sounds good.
-
Oh yes I'd be up for this campaign Pete. Also available for the Pulp game Sunday.
-
Another thrilling game, and great write up Pete. Once again down to the last turn.
-
Great game as usual Bryan cheers.
Not for me to blow my own trumpet
but I do seem to recall Andy at the time I opened fire saying "is this a wise move?" to which I replied "yeah I'll just cause one casualty and then roll double 1 to kill Bryan's General."And low and behold it came to pass !!
That's what I call tactics. Someone else may well call it miraculous luck !!
-
Great game thanks guys.
We live in hope that Craig may one day brake his losing streak but today was not that day !!
-
An enjoyable quick skirmish game to get back into the groove. Cheers Bryan.
Oh and a victory as well

I found the Gulliman flesh is fine over white primer, but seems a bit washed out over grey. Could just be me though. Never tried any other flesh contrasts.
