It was a hard fought game which the Anglo-French force won on points in the very last turn. Both sides suffered dreadful casualties.
Here are a few shots of the game.

The game was an early WWI game, with a reinforced British battalion and a French battalion, with artillery and cavalry support, holding two small villages against three German infantry battalions supported by artillery, a machine gun company, some jägers and a squadron of uhlans.

Great looking figures and pictures Mark, I like your impressive artilleries and splendid wagons...
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil. I agree that the artillery models look impressive. Unfortunately they don't appear so impressive when they are shooting at you!
DeleteThat looks fantastic Mark!
