In prep for H'con our club played Victory on the River last week. The CSA Navy and shore batteries won a minor victroy hs they only allowed 1.5 out of 4 "Cairo" class ironclads and one steamer to break the rebel defenses and sail up river. The CSA sank the steamer, two of the ironclads and criticaly injured a 3rd ship. The Battle Barn is looking forward to running Hampton oads next Friday. See you in F'burg. Bing |
