Carrying on with Too Fat Lardies Dawns and Departures campaign system as shown here: TMP link We again used a Napoleonic version of Pikemen's Lament, slightly modified and the scenario and the rules are a continuing success. A few photos of the game:
British infantry deploy to defend The Road to Varitas de Merluza.
Spanish guerrillas defend the hacienda with a little help from the rifle brigade.
French voltigeurs prepare to advance towards the Anglo-Spanish defenses. |

Very nice, I've been thinking of using D&D as a campaign system for ECW-era Pikeman's Lament. Actually, I've been thinking of using D&D as a campaign system for a lot of pre-20th century gaming. |

Thanks guys. We had a good time too. Of course the scenario was purloined, um I mean researched from the brilliant gentlemen at Too Fat Lardies. |

Whose the shifty rascal purloined behind the trees? |

That's my shifty, regular opponent Bob. He wins way more often than he looses but on this occasion, the British had to fall back. Next week its off to Belgium for a WSS game. |

What scale is this?
Are the French OLD GLORY 25mm? |
| Big Red | 11 Apr 2017 9:06 a.m. PST |
trailape, Sorry, didn't see your request. Yes, all the figures are 25mm Old Glory with the exception of the Spanish guerrillas which are Front Rank. |

Yes, all the figures are 25mm Old Glory with the exception of the Spanish guerrillas which are Front Rank Thanks. They look very nice. Just goes to show what a good paint job can accomplish. Seems the OLD GLORY miniatures are holding up despite their age. |
