Pauls Wargames Blog: October 2012

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Sunday, 28 October 2012. My favourite war game. I had a game of "Charge" yesterday, just a simple line them up encounter leaving out the battalion guns and light infantry. The forces of Altstein in blue are led by Von Bruckenheim and the Eisenburg-Essling army, mostly in white, are led by Fritz von Essling. The positions after move one. The light cavalry clash, the Altstein blue hussars are well beaten and flee the field. The Altstein infantry advance. The Meisse...

http://paulywaulyswargamesblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/bottleneck-one-hour-wargames.html

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Thursday, 9 April 2015. Bottleneck :- One-Hour Wargames. Day off today so I played another scenario from One Hour Wargames. It was number 24 : Bottleneck. The victorious Altsteiners find a small blocking force barring their way. The Altsteiners mass on their right flank hoping to bypass the lake and avoid the woods. Prince Johan is in command of the defenders. His dragoons cover the left flank. The Altstein right flank advances. And come within musket range.

Pauls Wargames Blog: Late Arrivals: more One Hour Wargames

http://paulywaulyswargamesblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/late-arrivals-more-one-hour-wargames.html

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Tuesday, 14 April 2015. Late Arrivals: more One Hour Wargames. Next I played Scenario 10: Late Arrivals. I deemed that the Altstein forces would have retreated after their setbacks and are coming together near Korbruck. The Eisenburgers are attacking and are led by Fritz von Essling, who has recovered from his injuries and Prince Johan. The Altsteiner have a couple of battalions trying to hold on until the reinforcements arrive. He dashes about steadying the men.

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Monday, 4 April 2011. The Battle of Korbrucke - I love wargaming! The Battle of Korbrucke, fought yesterday, was one of the most enjoyable wargames I've played. I suppose that not having played a game of "Charge" for about five months is a part of it, a timely reminder of what a fine set of rules Charge really are. By this time the gun battery was set up and preparing to enfilade the Altstein Grenadiers which may have had a crucial effect on the battle. With the ...

Pauls Wargames Blog: January 2012

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Tuesday, 10 January 2012. Inspired by Prince Lupus at the Wars of Wine and Cheese blog and frustrated at the length of time required to play "Charge! Due to the singly based soldiers I've decided to base the close order troops into eights and threes for infantry and cavalry respectively. Prince Lupus has some rule amendments to allow for this, especially for cavalry melees. I thought I would mark casualties with dice until there is enough to remove a whole stand.

An Eisenburg force is attempting to cut off the Altsteiners by taking the town of Hecksheim but they run into a large force of Altsteiners heading for Eisenburg territory.

18th Century imaginary wars in miniature. Saturday, 18 April 2015. Game Seven : A short but lively action. The last battle of this mini campaign is Scenario 6 : Flank Attack (1). I deemed that the Altstein forces would be falling back to Hecksheim after their recent reverses but find a small blocking force in their way and a larger force attacking their flank. The situation on turn one. The Altstein column is led by the Grenadiers. The blocking force, a battalion of infantry a gun battery and a commander.
