"Building the Rivoli Battlefield, Part 1" Topic

Once again we dive into the madness of over the top wargaming tables. That is the result of no adult supervision for us wargaming adults.

This time it's the Battle of Rivoli where Napoleon and 23,000 French hold off 28,000 Austrians in Italy.

We are running this game 2 times at Fall In:
F: 351 Rivoli, Friday 1PM
S: 386 Battle Of Rivoli, Saturday 12PM

Like Stones River and Marengo before, we are documenting the build, and sharing the madness with you on our blog.

Enjoy the ride, we are doing the hard part.

Great stuff- I love terrain blogs. If I had the money and the time I would just make terrain and pay someone else to paint most of my minis!

Great pics. I do hope you keep posting and keeping us updated as the battlefield develops.

That one always interested me. Played ona boardgame once.
French intel was way better ( spies in staff!) than the poor Austrians who hardly overall stand a chance. still the battle itself is full of possibilities.
