Vittoria
12th of July : Again the upload is a couple of nights late (Nearly, but not quite for the young lions). We completed the fourth and final of the Vittoria scenario. It had looked odds on for the British, but somehow the French clung on and the British failed to take any of the objectives for victory. So although the British dominated a lot of the field it was declared a tactical French victory.
5th of July : A night later than usual (Come on England !) Night 3 of the Vittoria scenario, the allies are pressing in on the French who are not having a good time.
27th of June
Night 2 of the Vittoria scenario, 3 game turns in and it's starting to get tasty with the allies pressing on both flanks.
26th of June : Night 2
A further 3 turns of hot action completed. Picton is across and deploying and Wellington is pushing troops forward. The French are holding there own but need some quick wins to be able to turn and meet the new threats.
Dead Generals, everywhere with every player having rolled on several occasions for risk to General. Only 1 killed outright at the moment which was wellingtons Portuguese brigade commander but the brigade steadied itself and are back on the advance.
19th of June : Night 1
Initial set up complete and the first four turns completed, Picton has come on quickly across the bridges choosing to ignore the ford so far and Wellington is throwing troops forward as best he can to protect the crossing. The French are spreading out to try and take out the allies piece meal and as always the French guns are having a bit of a field day.
2 vicious melees already, one being a win for the French but with high casualties, the other is on-going
