Hello All,

As part of our continuing series of articles about the South American Wars of Independence, I have put up information about the Battle of La Puerta, which has its 200th anniversary today, and also some information about the build up to the famous battle of la Victoria in Venezuela. This is another excellent article contributed by Carlos Godoy, who is writing a whole series on the battles and campaigns of the Liberations Wars in Venezuela.

These are another two battles ideal for Napoleonic wargamers.

You can find the blog post on the battle(along with other news about new figure releases) in the link below:

Thanks for the post. I am currently reading "Bolivar – American Liberator" by Marie Arana.

I won't spoil it for you all by telling you how it turns out.
