Monday Games - Flames of War, WWII Eastern Front

Monday Games - Napoleonics

A couple of Napoleonic games – one with the French versus an allied British, Spanish and Portuguese army. The other was a Sharp Practice game, pitting the French against the Austrians.

Not so much Pikeman's Lament, more Horseman's Lament. In this exciting encounter, mounted troops chased one another up and down the high street of some undeserving Midlands town, much to the consternation of the local populous.

Rules used were the popular Osprey title 'Pikeman's Lament'.
