Title: Song of Drums & Shakos AAR - Napoleonic Skirmish
Post by: Mattias on October 25, 2012, 12:38:37 PM: Hi there,

We are a gaming group based in Stockholm, Sweden.

I recently added a write up - with quite alot of pictures - of our latest game of Song of Drums & Shakos to our blogg.

It was a close fought game with a French foraging patrol running into some Prussians.

You have the AAR in its entirety here http://northern-wargaming.blogspot.se/2012/10/aar-famined-french-napoleonic-skirmish.html (http://northern-wargaming.blogspot.se/2012/10/aar-famined-french-napoleonic-skirmish.html).

And below are some pictures to wet you apetite.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

You should give it a go! It has a nice flow to it and is a good balance between fast play and tactical gaming. Also, you don't need that many models for your first games.

Don't have the budget for it at the moment. Here is to hoping for a box of Perry Plastic British for Christmas!
