link A long AAR of a rearguard action set in 1810. Lots of photo's too:
It includes a few ideas for special rules with black powder; Incidentally you can see the other sides POV on the game here: link Enjoy! |

Cool sounding game; almost sounds like you incorporated some Sharp Practice stuff – like random events, etc. I'll be hosting a Black Powder Peninsular game in a couple of weeks. Hoping to use Salamanca as the template – simplified with less troops. BTW, who makes those Highlanders in the photo? Best, Dean |

90% sure they're by Essex miniatures, but the commander on horseback is minifigs! |

They look like a good size/style match (at least in the photo) for the Perry figs (I'm assuming those line guys are – by the poses). Best, Dean |

Other units in shot are a mix of Perry and Victrix, yes. To be fair the Minifig commander is a very slight chap, but that marks him out as a feeble English toff leading a bunch of rowdy Scots in my book! |
