Sharp Practice Game - Gigabytes Historical Game Day 11/10/2018
« on: November 12, 2018, 08:35:33 PM »
The second game I ran at the games day at Gigabytes (11/10/2018) was a Sharp Practice game with a Royal Navy landing party attacking a shore battery.  We had 4 players in the game and it featured s 6 gun sloop, an 8-gun schooner and a small gunboat as well as the landing craft.

The British had a force of two groups of marines and two groups of sailors.  In addition they had the support of the sloop and schooner. The French had elements of the light infantry battalion with up to 5 groups of chasseurs and one group of voltigeurs. They had a gunboat for their naval contingent.

The pictures were poor as I was getting tired and mostly forgot to take them so pickings were slim.









The minis are all 15mm.  The ships are mostly Sea Dog Studios with some Old Glory rowboats thrown in.
