This weekend Roy celebrated his birthday with a game of WSS using some home-brew rules based on Armati Renaissance.
The rules feature lots of opposed rolls, with melee and shooting using the same basic mechanics.
There was a large number of units on display with British / Dutch taking on the French and Bavarians. I command the Bavarian continent on the left of the line French line.

Heavily out numbered on Horse I was able to hold off the British cavalry whilst a series of infantry attacks, with variable success but taking quite a bit of ground.

All good fun and plenty of cake!
Good fun indeed! Thanks for posting Stu - nice photos. It was a fine game, with plenty of discussion on the period and the emerging rules. I think the game had good period character - bloody and dramatic cavalry combats, plus to-and-fro infantry musket duels.
ReplyDeleteLovely looking armies, I do love a tricorn.
