White Cloud offers Big Bob protection and all was fine for some time. However scouts have come back with information that a government force is making its way to arrest them both. Resistance is planned and plans prepared to stop the soldiers...
Meanwhile a government force commanded by Brigadier Timothy Horton- Starbuck consisting of Rifle Volunteers, Naval Volunteers from the Grand Lakes, local scouts, Albion infantry and Guardsmen is on the way to make arrests.
Here is the scene before the battle commences with initial troop dispositions-
Figures are both metal and plastic, vintage and modern . I intend to fight the battle using “The Tin Army” rules over the next day or so. Watch out for a battle report soon. Will the arrests take place or will the Brigadier meet his match?
Just the sort of expedition needed for times like these!
ReplyDeleteI so agree.
DeleteLovely game! The Britains Herald plastic Indians were I think the first toy "soldiers" I had - wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI had the Herald chaps back in the day. Thanks for your positive comments. Reminds me that you don’t need tons of space for even a 54mm game.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour! Looking forward to the AAR.
ReplyDeleteI’m quite pleased with the overall look too.
DeleteWhere can I find these"Tin Army" rules of which you speak? Thanks in anticipation.

I am using a 2017 version I had lying about but the link is to the latest version by Ross The Square Brigadier. If you have problems with the links let me know.
Lovely setup, looking forward to the battle report :)
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteMy money is on the wily Natives ...
ReplyDeleteI’m inclined to agree with you but we will see...
DeleteYou and your archive research, I believe he wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea :)
ReplyDelete♫ La-tah-tee-tah! Our home and native land! ♫
ReplyDeleteIndeed!
DeleteA quaint escape. Looking forward to reading the battle report.
ReplyDeleteA quaint escape indeed, as time goes on I more and more gravitate to the toy soldier look and styling.
