Battle of Zorndorf - Devon Wargames Group
« on: March 06, 2019, 10:37:29 AM »
One of the games featured this month at the DWG was a Seven Years War set to recreating the Battle of Zorndorf using the Osprey ruleset 'Honours of War'.



If you would like to see how the game went and thoughts about the rules then just follow the link to the club blog.

Great looking game and report.

Regarding your query on artillery, isn’t there a -1 melee modifier for rolling artillery? As well as -1 for a small unit.

Also a later change was that all chargers get +1. Not just cavalry.
