« on: 10 January 2024, 09:31:27 PM »
Here's the AAR for our Christmas game, which this year was the Battle of Warburg 1760.  Fought at the Wargames Association of South Pembrokeshire (WASP) using 'Tricorn' rules (SYW adaptation of Shako):

What he said.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

That is a fantastic looking game and a great battle report.

Ah, the battle that gave the toupe its notoriety.

Fabulous looking game and a great AAR.

That was quite the game.  Too bad for the Frenchies...I did notice you cast several aspersions in the direction of the Légion Britannique...not fond of them, eh? :D

Cheers!

Not at all!  I'm sure that those vagabonds, cut-throats and ne'er-do-wells are perfectly lovely and nice to their mums.  >:(
