Battle Report - By Fire and Sword

 Hello All,

Went down to the club today, so have the usual club report.

Played a skirmish game with Jeff, my Imperials vs the Swedish. Scenario was defend the village and the Sweedish are 2 points down.

Here's the set up, plus the buildings each have 2 stands of dragoons.

Advancing up, against marching Sweedish. Fire from the buildings disorders my dragoons.

Turn 2 big charges! On the left fire from the buildings kills a stand forcing a morale test which my lads promptly fail and head home. But on the right my much larger veteran armored unit easily crushes through.

Bad morale time continues, with the cav unit fleeing off and panicing a foot unit. Then we line up for the next charge.

Pushing through without much trouble, but smaller unit is suffering a bit from mounting casualties.

Try charging the building with my small unit, but pushed back by fire facing a morale test. Big unit beats another infantry unit thou.

Small unit fails to rally so gets smashed in the flank.

Last turn has the final cav clash, I win and burn the supplies, but can't take the village.

In the mathematics phase, we both had like 43% losses, so no points for that. I get 2 for burning the loot, Jeff gets 4 for holding the village, a win for them. 

Quite a fun game! 

As usual few shots of other games:

A pulp game, with very nice terrain:

Another Fire and Sword with tons of people and the new rules:

Thanks;
