Brioche: Technical Details
This game was based on One Hour Wargames Scenario 15 Fortified Defence. Red has 15 turns to capture both fortified "towns".
Forces are roughly equal but Red has the option to reset once per game. When he does he clears off all of his and his whole force appears on the board edge again to try to finish the game.
Black had 6 Native riflemen (dismounted Irregular Cavalry mostly) with 2 Leaders.
Red had a General, 1 cavalry, 1 sharpshooter, 6 infantry, 1 fieldgun.
The rules were the Tin Army
Report to follow.

They deserve to get out!
DeleteLike your idea of using 'One Hour Wargames' for scenarios .
ReplyDeleteInitially I was unimpressed that so many were cut down versions of others' full scenarios but eventually I "got it".
DeleteI must admit that your big toy soldier games are visually very appealing and have me looking at those 30+ year old Prince August moulds in the attic with a certain nostalgia!
ReplyDeleteIts a pity that their 54's weren't H Ericson's work.
