Wooden Wars Napoleonic- The Crossing of the Hypzig
As the sun came up across the battlefield on Saturday, the British army, well dug in and ready to defend the bridge over the Grand River Hypzig. Officers, still sleepy from last night's ball, came traipsing in and taking command of their units. Parents of younger officers stood by or grabbed a chair and laid into their coffee. They knew it was going to be an epic event! I sent my own ADC off to get another tea for me, and at 9:07 am, the battle commenced!
In this scenario, the British are defending against the French and allies whose orders are to cross the river, secure the bridge and take the village. Any area of the river where it was thin (read one card wide) was fordable by infantry and cavalry, but took a full turn to do so.
For a full battle report and a scad more pics, grab your napsack full of marshal's batons and march on over to my blog
