Somewhere in Germany 2

This game is taking a bit longer than the Persian one.... and is far more about positional warfare rather than straight up-and-at-em. Completely different type of game.
Starting with French cavalry attacks across the river.

The Carabiniers succeeded...

Chasseurs not so...

So as the artillery slowly wends it's way forward, the Carabiniers break through and it looks like the Lancers are up for another go...

So now it's time for the Prussians to try a cavalry atack across the river...

Which didn't work either. However, the day's gaming ended with the Prussian Landwehr in square because of the greater threat by the cavalry - the French have a foothold on the Prussian bank of the river...

  1. This all looks great.

    Now, where are the guns to pound that square? "Clear the road!"

    1. As an extension of the 'You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place', likewise you can never have too many shinys. You may not need that, but you knows you want them...
