It seems like it was an even and fun battle! Which ruleset did you use?

And where are the figures from, especially the hero figures?

Your AAR was tense, I imagine the game was very back and forth with angst on both sides at pivotal moments.
My type of game!

FIW is such a great skirmish period…yet another period to pine for.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone!

The rules used are my own, freely downloadable from my club website link

The 'Heroes' and Mohawks are Conquest miniatures link
The Hurons are Perry miniatures link (in their metal AWI range)
The Rangers are AW miniatures, I think (Phil would know – they are his figures) link

And yes! – it was very scary for our guys at times! – the sort of game you remember!

The Rangers are mostly from Galloping Major – lovely sculpts, highly recommended.
There are a couple of AW in the 'firing line' group… decent enough figures, fit in pretty well with GM.
