Campaign maps

This is the first of our campaign maps for wargamers. These maps will come as kits requiring some simple assembly using wood glue or other contact adhesive. They consist of the land area in 2mm MDF, blue sea base in 3mm MDF and a backing piece which will take map pins.

This map is based on Japanese provinces which a coulpe of clum members are using for a Gempei Wars campaign.

Each province on this map has a points value to assist with objectives and assembling field armies. We are also working on a set of rules to use this map as a board game. Once perfected these will be available as a free download.

We will also sell the pins in several colours to cover multiple factions.

Next up will be a series of maps for the Crusades.

 

Sharp Practice French and Indian wars.

It's a while since we played SP and my first time with this period so looking forward to giving it a run out again.

The British commanded by John were defending the buildings with a small contingent of Indian allies.

I commanded the French, well somebody had to. This is their Indian contingent.

The French marine contingent.

The British sent out the indians to protect the redcoats from an expected attack by the French skirmishes and indian contingent.

Fatigue on the British allies from the skirmishers.

A casualty and more fatigue after combined fire from the marines and indians.

Following the British allies retreat the redcoats return fire on the indians on the hill.

Can't remember what these lads were but they proved effective against the British skirmishers from behind cover.

French irregulars advance towards the British

and pay the price with 2 casualties

The British skirmishers continue under accurate fire and are forced back.

The French indian leader is knocked over once again, it will take him 3 moves to recover.

The British skirmishers have left the table and their indian

contingent have been sent out to plug the gap.

They were quickly forced back and would leg it off the table also.

The French are closing in on all sides

but the British regulars put up a stubborn defence.

French marines close in and fire at a section of the Britsh

They break

Only one unit left and they decide to live and fight another day!

Excellent game put on by club treasurer John Sabbiston.
