Sometimes I'm amazed my players come back for more, I do expect rather a lot of them at times!<br />Alcañiz is a a good one for a future scenario - in fact that whole campaign is full of interesting "what ifs" for games. Maybe we should give the French players a break first though with a game or two against some lighter-weight opposition like the Prussians, let them get back to feeling overconfident again before they have to go back up against something as tough as the Spanish :)e-ruleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05097628931142838778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650806022139866194.post-60129006758460680722015-03-16T19:25:16.028+13:002015-03-16T19:25:16.028+13:00It looks like one of those battles in which to hav...It looks like one of those battles in which to have any chance of success, the French have to get everything right.

With 12 pounders blazing away and an extra 6 units hitting the center it would have been a different story completely. Fortunately they took the scenic route so arrived too late.<br /><br />CheersJackohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01156243437690752780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650806022139866194.post-2706518469560459442015-03-15T22:53:04.507+13:002015-03-15T22:53:04.507+13:00Great report and photos!Great report and photos!Rodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14447816347472085277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650806022139866194.post-28199603453649715962015-03-15T18:02:52.704+13:002015-03-15T18:02:52.704+13:00Great report Colin.
