I've done no more of my Oathmark campaign this week as me old back has been a bit sore. I did find some old photos from a game that I forgot to post last May. So here we go...
The toys are my old plastic AWI chaps and the scenario involves the British forcing a river crossing to take a hill on the other side.
The objective is well defended.
But the bridge is taken.
British artillery bombarding from across the creek.
The view from the American lines.
Another unit of redcoats are close to breaking, 14 hits.
The Grenadiers are holding on.
And the Brits are defeated, here are the lightbobs falling back to the bridge.
A pleasant way to spend an hour.
I do like these rule , a quick game in limited time (does what it says on the tin )
ReplyDeleteTrue Tony, I like many others have tinkered with them but I now believe they are best played as written.
DeleteProof if proof were needed that you cannot beat a bit of horse and musket action on the table.
ReplyDeleteAye you're right there Conrad.
DeleteGreat to see the splendid Airfix folk. Looks like a fun game.
ReplyDeleteOld soldiers they are but they've never let me down.
DeleteNice game... there's always something rather nice about an 18c wargame...
ReplyDeleteOne Hour Wargames gives some canny little battles, I should play it more often.
DeleteGreat to see the old AIRFIX OO/HO - AWI Armies - good work there Paul.
