The convention site seemed great to me with plenty of space, hotels and food close by, and local shopping. 4 to 5 hours away, I will attend again next year.
We each played in a few games. I especially enjoyed the two Field of Battle games put on by Peter Anderson.
Seargents Miniatures Game...combo board/miniatures game. |
Squad Leader Noah |
His squad advances on the dug in Germans. |
The first casualty. |
Our side won! |
Kids Wargaming 101 |
The Generals |
VICTORY! |
1st Polotsk with Field of Battle |
My Russian heavy cavalry advance boldly on the far left. |
And tie down a full division plus two brigades of reserve cavalry. |
My objective...the well defended church. |
The cavalry pulls back but they did delay the enemy and pull the reserves to my side of the table. |
A renadier division advances on the church supported by a line of guns. |
The stoic Russians absorb the casualties and hit the Bavarian defenders. |
The gun line protects the open left flank. |
My Grenadiers took the objective and split the enemy line. |
With more troops coming up as reinforcements. |
A late enmy counter-attack got broken up by concentrated artillery fire. |
Meanwhile, on the far flank, the Russians began to envelope the French line. |
Cossacks got into the enemy rear and casused havoc. |
More troops move into the center to secure the objective. |
The height of the advance...nothing between my forward unit and the enemy rear except routing units. |
The victory is complete on the opposite flank. |
A decisive Russian victory. |
Sharpe Practive game in Egypt. |
French troops were defending against the British and Mamelukes. |
Mameluke troops ready to attack the infidel. |
My cavalry charges the French forcing two units to retreat and form square. |
Not much success on the other end of the battle. |
Last ditch effort to attack the French pillaging the tomb. |
Only picture of the Battle of Lecco game using Carnage and Glory rules. |
Battle of Malojaroslawez, another Field of Battle game |
Cossacks on the flank...these guys got shot to pieces. |
My command in the center...Russian infantry advancing onto the field. |
I advanced all the way to the town, but could not take the buildings. I did manage to chase away some cavalry with my infantry. |
Troops packed into a small area. |
Reserves moving to protect the left flank. |
French advanced, but suffered severe losses to artillery fire. |
End game...a minor Russian victory. |
