Looking for some different settings for SP games I decided on expanding my 7yW in the Carribean with the British attack on Havana in 1762. I used Stuart Insch's Against Spain booklet as inspiration. This scenario is a beach assault to the east of Havana Harbor on the morning of June 6, 1762 by the British Lights and Grenadiers There was a small stone fort at Cojimar and perhaps a breastwork. I had no stone fort so went with a redoubt. It was a simple game to get players acquainted with the theatre and new unit types. Sharp Practice rules and 15mm minis It was a simple game to get players acquainted with the theatre.

That's a great looking game lads, bigger than I could have put on myself.
Nice to see the scenario's are getting a run out. How did it go with SP?
Thanks for sharing 😊

This looks great. I love games that are off the beaten track.

Lovely little fight there. My wife and I actually visited Cojimar in 2017, on a side trip from Havana. Nice little town. FYI, below is one of the pics I took of that stone fort you mentioned.
Incidentally, they also have a memorial to Ernest Hemingway across the street from the fort. Apparently he wrote the Old Man and the Sea there...

The one I used myself was from Slug Industries.
It's a lovely model and certainly of a very similar design.

That would work, wouldn't it? ;)
