Here's my most recent scenario, one I worked up with Brian North. It is Crauford's retreat over the Côa in the face of Ney's 6th Corps attack on Portugal's border fortress Almeida in 1810. We had loads of fun play-testing (with Brian remote via video in the age of Covid 19) trying to execute a withdrawal while under attack – almost all maneuver, with a few clashes and a whole lot of skirmishing.

Interesting scenario and nice looking table!

Thanks, Frederick. Yes, it was possibly the most enjoyable scenario we've played – lots of drama!
