the battle of NARVA
« on: 25 January 2017, 10:41:13 AM »
Last Sunday we played the battle of Narva using 15 mm figs and FOG Renaissance rules.
It was a battle on the snow, [a snowstorm blew over the Russian positions]

Lovely looking game. Only period I haven't got an army for in Renaissance gaming - this has me thinking I need to fix that. Thanks for sharing.
