Steven and I (Dirk) mounted a fictive Peninsular campaign battle as introduction for novice players Peter and Bruce, to lurn the About Bonaparte rules.
A British force was waiting for the attack of a French allied force (Frach/ Polish/ Bavarian/ Württenberger) army.
The Brits had a lot of riflemen , part veteran, part elite.. The Franch had the W^rttenberger jâger as elite units. and one regiment of French was veteran.
On all flanks th French allied force was able ot get a footold on the hilside, but lacked the reserves to follow up and defeat the British. While the Brits had still reseerves to plug the gaps.
A British victory and fun game!
Sounds like an historical outcome for the Peninsula. Great looking game. I am envious of your British Deetail collection!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nick. Apart from the 2 Timpo Highlanders, all Brtish troops were from Steven and Bruce. All French and allies are mine.
