The Battle of Bemis Heights - A British Grenadier Refight

Evening all,

The last couple of weeks have seen us revisit the AWI with a go at 2nd Saratoga. It was a close run, enjoyable game. I really do enjoy British Grenadier, proper old school rules.

I was a bit limited with my choice of battle not because of numbers but due to my lack of cavalry. It's my own fault as I have had the horses done for a year at least I just haven't finished the riders off.

You will find our orbats, map and game pics included. I live tweeted the game a couple of weeks ago so if you're on twitter you might have seen some of the pictures before. Twitter handle (?) is @yarkshiregamer.

Regards Ken

Love your game.
Perry figures are so nice.
After looking over your blog,
(excellent by the way.)
Went to the Perry site and am thinking about some AWI.
Like I need another period. ::)
