We have fought two other South America games at Salute

The Battle of Ayacucho – 1824
link

and
The Battle of Maipo 1818
link

All were refought using plastic 1/72nd figures with some metals.

Lots of info on these links for you all.

We really hope to be bringing The Battle of Araure to a Show in Europe in 2016.
