The Government Lines |
A 'what if' battle from the '45 Jacobite Rebellion. We re-fought this battle in October '12 and although we didn't have time to finish the whole game, it was clear that the Jacobite charge was spent and the remainder of the game turns would be the Government Army mopping up the remnants....
.... We used John's government forces and Mikey W's Jacobite figures for this bash and the scenario was moderated by Dave, who used the new 18th Century Principles of War rules.
We all enjoyed the game and decided to repeat it on 9/11/12 with a number of scenario changes :-
|
More Government Troops |
|
Government Cavalry Brigade |
Instead of running the game length ways down the table we'll run it width ways across the table - giving each side more room to manoeuvre.
Government Forces to be given Victory Points the encourage them to seize the Road Bridge near the Jacobite lines - preventing the Government forces just sitting and waiting for a Jacobite attack!

Change the rules mechanism to allow for simultaneous movement and firing, in our opinion a fairer system.
