An interesting report. I had been rather sceptical about the gaming potential of the WW1 Early War as I thought the Franco-Prussian War had much more to offer tactically. So this was food for thought  :)

Super looking game.
Very fine set up.
Why have you decided to go with 5 stand Battalions
instead of staying with ten?
Who is this Bykleigh guy?
He seems to be everywhere in your battle reports.
Are they all brothers?
Must be from a big family. lol
