we ran this battle at Battle Group Boston's annual HAVOC convention this weekend, and it was a close fought affair.
Many more pictures and a hopefully entertaining battle report on my blog at: link We will be using these rules for our big Waterloo "Campaign in a Day" on Sunday, April 26th. We have openings for players for this really fun style of multi- table (12), multi-player event. Peter |

I played the game. It was interesting. I drove Scott M crazy with making all my morale checks. |

Thanks, i have the rules but they still await French / Austrians to be painted. Your table looks good. |

Very colorful and inspiring. Also, well-painted. Did the display/game bring anybody new into the hobby (or the Black Hole of Napoleonic wargaming)? |

Looks like fun. I must try these rules out. |

You should also check out last year's Snappy Nappy game on his Blunders on the Danube blog. It is tremendous fun to play a game across multiple table. As you can see from the photos, the set up and figures are fantastic, the game runs smoothly, and it's a great time. While I could not make Havoc, I am certainly planning to make the April 26th game at Time Machine, just outside Hartford, CT. For those with more interest, there is a Snappy Nappy Yahoo group. |

Normsmith: It doesn't take that many figures for SN. You could have a quite decent game with 100 figures a side. Now get painting! :-) Dan, Can't say about ensnaring new cannon fodder for Napoleonics, but we try! David (MaxShadow) yes, you should! :-) Russ – see you there! And you're right – while SN works well for a game like this, the "Campaign in a Day"
is something else altogether! Link for the 2013 August 1813 event AARs:
