Nice miniatures and terrain (including the camps). This is FoGR with 15mm miniatures?

Thank you very much !
yes, it is FoG Ren. [15mm] It was  an exciting battle: The Christian Cavalry routed the Ottoman Cavalry and looted their Camp. In the center there was a tough fight... The Jannissaries managed to defeat twice their numbers of the Austrian Inf. and Eugene was Killed in action !!! But afterwards the Vezyr was also killed and so the battle ended a winning draw for the Ottomans.

Cool looking game, good to see a star fort (or at least the corner of one) make it onto the table.

I've constructed a complex full Vauban fort. We're planning a siege battle in the near future where this fort will be the protagonist.

A Vauban fort will make it soon to the table, I promise!
