Flanders 1793

 

I had Comand of the French forces attempting to break the siege of Dunkirk.

The English artilery spars at long rang withoug much effect but then their cavalry charges across the Bridge. 

We succesfuly throw buck the first charge but then a follow up charge destroys my Dragoons ...

and then over runs my horse battery before it can deploy. 

Wtih a rosuing courus of Ca Ira a unit of levvies charges the emigie cavalry and scatters the cowardly monarchists. 

Currasiers charge accross the bridge at the disored enemy dragoosn and drive them form the field. 

Naturaly this causes the English horse artilery to turn and shoot into my cavalry... 

My Currasiers go down but then my guns and infantry fire tinto his guns. 

The Levies over rune the artilery and have regular French Infantry coming up in support the English army withdraws in good order. 

Tree House Up date

Just a dad in his natural enviorment building a tree house in his Bluey T shirt

The tree house is coming together now. 

I've got two "walls" up. Now its time to build the stairs/ladder to get up then the last side.


 

Degsastan 603 AD Blood of Kings and Heroes

 

My Saxons forces are in a good defensive crouch waiting for the attack by the Scots

and the Scots are moving on both flanks

I do pretty well against the first charge... 

Then comes another charge and then.... 

They bring Friends.... 

So I bring in some friends and we have a quite scrum going on the center... 

the right flank is looking bad especially after some lucky javelin shooting

Hear comes the flank attack.... 

its Ugly but it could have ben worse... my archers get away as my infantry fight desperately

Sadly they don't last long... 

But I get some revenge on the left 

At the start of the 4th turn I am hard on point but in a dangerous situation and my opponent gets to go first.  So more flank charges are coming... 

Still I manage to hold off the first attack... 

and my camp is under threat...

My guard charges... and throw the attacker in to disorder and begin killing! (my enemy loses abase) 

Unfortunately one of my center infantry is broken after my other Guard unit fails to move up. 

Now they charge to avenge the fallen! 

We slaughter the troops attacking the camp

My troops in the center Hold their ground and I win the game breaking my opponents army, 12 of 12 route point, my own army is hanging on with 4 out of 9 route points in dagger. Had Raedwalds embattled infantry be destroy the battle would have been a draw. 


 

Birthday

 Today 10/10 is my Birthday.  I took the day off and did some work around the house then some work on the Treehouse 

I didn't get as much done as I wanted to because of the earlier projects taking too long and realizing my original plan wasn't going to work and having to come up with a new plan 

Anyway I now have a full wall up and should be able to get started on the second wall. 

I got a new toy to help me with painting, looking forward to trying to out. I also got tickets to New England Moot a gathering of Tolkien Nerds in New Hampshire. 

Active Armor Lower Dnieper 1943

 

My Soviet roll forward looking for a German supply depot 

The Germans get first Blood disordering two of my units. 

Armored units clash  

and soviet infantry charges.

Combat around the village intensifies. 

And Soviets Chard again.. 

and again... taking losses as we come in. 

Recon moves into the continuing melee with the 88s. 

My Guards armor are destroyed after a desperate fight

Fighting rages on the left flank. 

We take the 88 by storm our first successful attack 

the left my troops are struggling. The Germans seem to be getting all the good "rolls" (its a computer moderated game)

Still my me manage to blow up the depot. Good Luck in the last turn makes up for bad luck in the rest of the game.
