"Battle of Castalla - Battle Report" Topic

Just posted up the scenario and battle report for Castalla, 1813, with lots of pictures on the blog: link

A couple of preview pictures:

Enjoy!

Lovely table and a post that I really enjoyed reading – starts my day off well. Thanks

Great pics and figures! Just what I needed this morning to get me moving on painting my own Napoleonic's. What scale/brands? What happened to the French cavalry division on the left? Did someone roll a "fumble"?

Thanks guys! Mostly Front Rank (almost entirely) with some Perry Miniatures in there. French cav moved forward to threaten the infantry, they formed square but the French failed to bring artillery/infantry to bear on the square … so eventually the British artillery and volley fire took it's toll on the French cav … that combined with some crap rolls really broke that flank. We decided to move the Cavalry brigade one position towards the center in the future so that it has infantry/guns on both sides of it … more opportunity for support.

Nice pictures, but I´ve been in the actual battlefield and I must say that the hills where the British Infantry defended were any thing except gentle!

There are pinetrees actually in those hills, but not in 1813, and I think a man with his equipment have to use his hands to climb them.

Excellent! Thank you. Love those Spanish grenadiers.
