I decided to play the game out. Although I usually roll for initiative, this part of the game Grey got to move first.
 |
| At daybreak the Grey Army launches its attack (GreyArmy on the left). |
 |
| The Grey Army's left flank. |
 |
| The battlefield, as seen from above the Grey's Lins. |
 |
| On the Grey's left they drive off the Green's cavalry and kill two Guardsmen. |
 |
| On the Grey's right, they manage to maul the Green's 1st Jagers. |
 |
| The Green army takes the time to reorganize and sends forward half of the 2nd Jagers in the center. |
 |
| The Green's return fire drives off the infantry holding the town and punches a large hole on the Grey's right. |
 |
| The Green Army counterattacks (they won the initiative roll). The green cavalry smashes into the Grey's left, with the Guards following up. |
 |
| The 2nd Jagers charge the town. The 1st Jagers capture two grey stragglers. |
 |
| The 1st Jagers shake out there line and advance. |
 |
| The green cavalry drives back the Grey's left. |
 |
| The 2nd Jagers fire kills two Gross Gras Regiment soldiers. |
 |
| The Greys right starts to collapse after the 1st Jagers volley. |
 |
| At this point the Grey Army breaks and runs. |
 |
| The Grey refugees flee by their General. |
 |
| 5 Gross Gras soldiers are left behind. |
 |
| The cavalry swings around to cut off their retreat. |
 |
| The Grey prisoners are turned over to the green cavalry. |
 |
| The battlefield at the end of the game. |
 |
| The Green General rides through the town to view the Grey's retreat. The Grey Army lost 28 dead, 11 prisoners. The Green Army lost 11 killed. |
Another super game John. I do like the look of these old Toys.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy I played it out as you suggested. It makes me want to use these figures more, and have some ideas on how to use them.
ReplyDeleteThe little buildings go well with the figures too. Do you have any artillery to match these figures?
DeleteI have four of these building, but somehow lost two of them. I do have a few guns, a couple of them are from the same period as the figures, and a couple more that looks the part, but are newer pieces.
ReplyDeleteAnother beaut game John. There seemed to be a fair body count by the end!
ReplyDeleteI thought for a minute that the Grey General would pull off a victory.
