Raglan's Boxer Rebellion (Hollywood Style)

[Lord Raglan]

Sharp Practice Boxer Rebellion - Despite the injury sustained by their leader, the Boxers began to swarm towards the enemy, making particularly good progress on the more open right flank. In response, the Japanese infantry moved forward and formed a firing line. Hold, Hold, Fire!!

Sharp Practice Boxer Rebellion - The firepower of the 8 Nation Alliance with their breach loaders was coming into full effect, driving back Boxer assaults across the line. A small mob of Boxer skirmishers had their own success against the Americans, killing several of them.

Sharp Practice Boxer Rebellion - The British Naval Detachment had been slow to enter the combat zone, as initially they were given rearguard duty. From a commanding position on the hill, a US Gatling Gun also added its firepower to the battle. The Boxers continued their advance.

Sharp Practice Boxer Rebellion - The 8 Nation Alliance had now formed an impenetrable line across the battlefield and despite several brave attempts by the Boxers to break the formation, their morale broke and the mobs retreated back in the countryside, ready to fight another day.

Well done Matt Slade🏆. Matt is the first person to successfully win the day for the 8 Nation Alliance. Safely escorting the Chinese Provincial Governor back to his residence. Matt skilful commanded his troops, using their superior firepower to full advantage👌

Great games, with the 8-Nation Alliance getting that convincing win!  Well done!

My kinda game! Pity about the poor Boxers though.

Cool games, both of them.  And all so very lovely to look at.

Cheers boys, your comments are all very welcoming 👍🏻

I’m going to take a little break from the Rebellion now, but next time I visit this thread, you will see some Tigermen and Chinese Cavalry, plus the last piece of planned scenery.

 I would love to see some Raglan "HOLLYWOOD STYLE" WW2 stuff.

I’ve tried gaming WWII several times, but it just doesn’t grab me Tom.

Chinese Bandits. I added these to the collection for a specific scenario which involves European archaeologist hunting for dinosaur fossils in China. Excellent miniatures from our friends at @NorthStarFigs.

The layout was missing a temple, so we thought to make this a really pretty centrepiece. The plan is to surround the temple building with water features and beautiful gardens, a perfect setting for a punch-up.
