The Battle of Mollwitz 1741 (Scenario)

[Jemima Fawr]

After a gap of some 20 years, I'm having a game of 'Tricorn' on Tuesday with my old mate Osmoses (who is normally to be found here in the 'Adventures in the Far East' forum).  I thought we'd have a go at the Battle of Mollwitz, Fred the Big's first battle, as it's a fairly straightforward 'Line 'em Up & Bash' battle that we should get finished on a club-night...  Yeah, as if...    Anyway, here's the scenario.  BatRep to follow:

Osmoses got a bit carried away with the 'snowy photoshop' after last night's game...

Majestic spectacle! I am carried away by the snowy sight, too! Applause!
Eagerly waiting for the battle report! Cheers!

Indeed and what an absolutely lovely blog post - thank you.

[Jemima Fawr]

Thanks fellas!

I think I'll ask Osmoses to similarly photoshop all my photos for the batrep...

Thumbs up!
I am curious how difficult it is to do such photoshop job, envying to do something similar! Cheers!

It's beyond my understanding, but that's no indicator as to difficulty...

It's very easy. It's done in free photo-editing software called PhotoscapeX. Among the lighting effects section are some weather effects. Very user friendly so it's just a matter of a few clicks.

Perfect! Thanks a lot!

I , too, am enraptured by the snowy effects I’ve never seen anything like it . It shows up the uniforms and figures even more than usual. Well done , all round 👍 .

I should also have mentioned that Osmoses also painted the entire Austrian army (about 30 years ago, for our late friend Doug).

Nice looking battle.  I really like this period

The snow effect really adds to the ambience. Well done!

Always a fun battle to play.
The game and the snow look great!
