Having reviewed the troops on hand, I've decided to go with smaller than usual for AGW but acceptable units of 8 infantry or 4 cavalry. The armies will each have a pool of 9 units: 2 cavalry, 1 artillery and 6 infantry, one of which can be light infantry.
Some of my units had not yet been upgraded to 8 so I cast up a few recruits to bring them up to strength.
While you're waiting for the battle, here are links to last year's ECW game, and the ACW game from the year before.
A beautiful and impressive face to face!
ReplyDeleteThey are supposed to be parading today but it does look like a fight could breakout at any moment.
DeleteAll that’s lacking is the port—a matter of timing rather than oversight, I’m sure.
ReplyDeleteWith this lot of Canadian milita and angry Irishmen? I suspect beer and whiskey might be more likely.
DeleteLooking at that reminds me of the Wolfe/Montcalm situation - did they really say 'After youy' 'No, after you' for shooting?
ReplyDeleteI believe that myth is from Fontenoy.
DeleteLooks (and sounds) highly promising, Ross. Eager to read the after action report.

They look very good indeed , ideal for AGW .
ReplyDeleteLooks set to be a great game Ross.
ReplyDeleteWish I was there...looks to be a good game. Just keep those cavalry out of the line of fire until the infantry is stuck in. :D My son’s remark on game balance in my most recent fights was that I shouldn’t count cavalry at all...
