I have been able to fight through six turns, or an hour and a half of historical time, in my recreation of the Battle of Quatre Bras. So, far, all has gone pretty much as it did historically. The French have been able to push back the thinly spread Dutch/Belgian line, but it has taken valuable time to do so.

It's time to shift the battle northward for what will be the most significant portion of the action. This is the map I'll use to set up the table. This is to scale for my General de Brigade rules.

These figures (a mixture of Perry Miniatures plastics and metal) I painted for a customer before Xmas but I only made the Flags a few weeks ago. As I didn't have any flags I decided to make a new range of ACW flags starting with 3 sheets covering the Union 'Stars & Stripes', next will be some sheets for the Confederates covering the Stars & Bars and the Battle Flag. As time goes by I will start adding more sheets to cover State Flags and Cavalry Flags & Pennants.
