Title: Bantry Bay 1796, Kiss Me Hardy - Devon Wargames Group
Post by: carojon on 15 August 2023, 10:27:25 AM

Last weekend at the monthly DWG club meeting I got to play-test my planned scenario for the upcoming Clotted Lard meeting next month with a Kiss Me, Hardy Scenario recreating a 'What If' situation around the attempted Franco-Irish invasion of Ireland in 1796.

The game helped test some options to include and discard but revealed the knife-fight game intended as the French squadron ended up fighting the enemy and the weather.
