I would like to blame Dave for the defeat due to his dice rolling, but mine were just as bad, possibly worse because of the timing.

Every time I got into a good position I failed to activate, and the opportunity got lost.

The Brunswickers marched to the song "Chanson du chiens chaud"

If the price is right

Plein d'argent, plein de Suisse

Rein d'argent, rein de Suisse

I thought the 2nd Edition played well, the basic rules are the same, but the magic is expanded and improved.

Of course, it would work better if your wizard actually activates !

It's a worthwhile update on the original Dragon Rampant.

Weighty Projectiles are the Heavy Missile with range reduced to 12", for some reason I thought all Heavy Missile were 12"

I can bring my Nikephorian Byzantines also, I have enough based to make a 24 point force

I can bring my Indian Army led by Prince Koura from The Golden Voyage of Sinbad.

Bryan has his Cretaceous Chickens (dinosaurs) and Dave has his Dog Chews army (undead skeletons)

Maybe that dog ate their frogs ad snails ?

Is the grey for their faces because they haven't had their morning ration of dog ?

Hundchen schnitzel mit sauerkraut is a traditional Saxonian delicacy.

I hadn't seen Babbage Rules before, it was hard to keep track of what was happening. The rebel units would disappear then reappear, or was that a new unit entirely, I was never sure ?

Thanks for that

I hadn't considered Shock Infantry in 18 man units

18 Green Line Infantry seem useful as filler to absorb fire at low cost

I will find a reason to get a unit of cuirassiers, just for show

Thanks Pete,

I can't make it tonight though.

If I was to get an Austrian Napoleonic force what point size should i go for ?

And are there any preferences for the the number of shock cavalry and infantry ?

The Brunswick were slowed down by all the dead bodies of Del Monte's men in their way

It could be Dougie's Donkey, ask him

Bryan, you will have to rename your Mexican General,

Pedro Pascal is actually Chilean https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0050959/bio/?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm

But, Diego Luna is Mexican (with a Scottish mother) https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0526019/bio/?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm

Looked good, I should be able to make it this Sunday

Does anybody have Austrians or Russians that could be used against them ?

Also, the Ottoman Mamluks defeated the British expedition of 1807

I thought the reason for the columns was to give greater depth to burst through lines with bayonet charges

I've had 2 consecutive nights out, which at my age means I'm shattered.

So I'll skip tonight and see you next Sunday.

Thanks Pete, see you next month
