Troops advance to assault the fortified village and engage in an exchange of musketry.
Defenders retreat and attackers too ,off the far right edge of the picture.
End of game with the defenders holding on on the left side of the picture with the attackers retreating whilst on the right hand side the attack is pressed home.
All in all I would recommend people to try these rules for themselves as they give an enjoyable game. I even enjoyed using the bounce stick ( ok so its old school, probably unhistorical but great fun) and saving throws too. I will try the rules again with a bigger encounter type game with cavalry.So break out the 18th century figures and give it a whirl...
nice report
ReplyDeleteFun is the name of the game.
Just been reading Featherstone's book with these rules in - lots of ideas in there , Tony
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good game. I certainly enjoyed rereading Don's colonial rules, very tempting.
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! Must give these rules a try.
