the battle was a solo game , that is part of a campaign.
the first photos are from my battles record, second part are from the battle played over the week end.
Rule used is TSATF , version In the Forest plus modifications made by me.
it was a pleasant game , with the Americans very unlucky with dice through, which bring the battle in a easy victory for the french side.
