I've been behind in my gaming of late, but finally managed to get some my battle reports written up.

In 1814, General Clausel was given the task of holding the advancing Allied army at Aire so that depots could be evacuated. The French has been defeated at Orthez, but Wellington sent Daddy Hill forward to keep the Frenchmen running.

You can see some pictures of the battle that resulted here.

I finally got around to posting the second half of this battle report. It was a good game and the scenario is definately one of the better Peninsula battles.

The punch up in the centre between the Neapolitans and the Portuguese was probably one of the most entertaining parts. The Neapolitans were standing in for French militia.
