Following his stunning victory at the Rawnla valley, Don Byklos is keen to maintain the initiative and so pursues the Carlist general Don Fillipe with a view to engage his now depleted force again before he can be reinforced by fresh volunteer battalions.
So the scene is set for our latest game here in OHQ, the game would be played out using the Black Powder rule set with movement and ranges reduced to 66%.
The forces of Don Byklos comprise of two brigades
Brigade 1. Three infantry battalions all with the First Fire and the Must Form Square rule. One line cavalry regiment with the Lancers
One horse artillery battery with the Marauder rule.
Brigade 2. Two British Auxiliary Legion battalions all with the First Fire and the Must Form Square rule.
One unit of attached skirmisher, small unit, skirmishers rule.
One Royal Marine Rocket Battery
The forces of Don Fillipe Hijoderobin comprise of one brigade on the table, a further brigade of newly raised recruits is expected to arrive asap
On table; Three infantry battalions, all with the First Fire and Must Form Square rule and one with the
addition of the Elite rule, in this case 4+
One line cavalry regiment with the Lancers rule.
One foot artillery battery
To arrive: Two newly raised volunteer battalions both with the unreliable rule
One unit of attached skirmisher, small unit, skirmishers rule [URL=http://s245.photobucket.com/user/olafnn/media/cornwall2015%20162_zpsjbqf9tvr.jpg.html]

Great looking game as always, very inspirational. Now if only the Perry's would release some new figures it would be enough to get me painting again. |

Thanks chaps.
Yup it appears Michael has abandoned the range in favour of men in tin plate and men in tin hats :-)
Just wished he would finish off the Carists in shell jackets he had started at least. |

Thumbs up! Has anyone contacted Michael to see if he's planning to expand the range? Maybe he just needs some persuasion. |
