Retreat to Corunna

[SteveBurt]

We played a Sharp Practice game last night; the first scenario of the Corunna mini-campaign from the Lardies summer special.
A French pursuing force catches up with a British rearguard. The French objective is to get a unit within 18 inches of the British main deployment point, but only their cavalry are available at first.
A fun game, which swung back and forth; the French nearly got an early win but the British cavalry deployed in time to stop them, then the French were flung back and looked likely to lose, but their infantry arrived just in time, and int he end both sides force morale was teetering on the edge, but a charge by the French line infantry tipped the British over the edge.
