"Legend has it that this battle was unleashed by a cartographic dispute. For centuries they have argued whether the channel lying between France and Great Britain should be called the La Manche or the English Channel. Of course, the best method to resolve this kind of dispute is either a drinking speed competition, but since the French preferred wine and the British preferred beer, it was not possible. Therefore, there was only one possibility to resolve this dispute – a small, colonial war – a typical 19th century European tradition". ;) I invite you to read the battle report on the clash between the British and the French: gmboardgames.com/blog/en/aar-battle-of-chiapas-what-should-a-certain-channel-be-called

Quite the battle. I presume that these are 6mm figures, correct?
