ACW Attack from inland and the sea

[nevermore]

Not the largest battle by Grimsby Club but a eye candy game and one with a differance, attacking from inland as well from the coast, confeds have really good defensive postions but are outnumbered by 2-1, excellent game, the Southern boys held out and await for another game in the near future...44 photos uploaded on website, part 2 next week

[Colonel Tubby]

Great looking game - love the land/sea combination, not something often seen gamed in the ACW.

[Mr Pommeroy]

Interesting scenario, sir. Looks like quite an entertaining affair.

Regards, Pommeroy.
