Nagy-Sallo 1849 BBB again
« on: July 07, 2017, 05:55:01 PM »


The Hungarian rebels tried to shove their way through the Austrians to relieve a besieged fortress. Eight turns of bayonet charges ensued. Details and many photos can be found here https://corlearshookfencibles.blogspot.com/
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

Always a joy to read your photo-AARs, Vincent!

And I'm glad that this scenario has delivered a win for each side for you.

Oh, you should, you really should. Whether you mean the Hungarian war of 1848-1849 specifically (a seriously large and seriously neglected conflict, full of fascinating episodes) or the mid/late nineteenth century in general (wonderful variety of gaming potential), I highly recommend it to you.

For Hungary 1848-1849, Nagy-Sallo is the sixth BBB scenario I've done. All have been good games, and every one is different. More to come.

I sure would like to see someone do scenarios for Radetzky's battles in Italy during the 1848-49 convulsions. Someone else, that it. I'm currently thinking of Stones River for the ACW and Marengo, Bailen and Albuera for Napoleonic. Yes, I use BBB for large Napoleonic battles.
