The Barons' War | 500pt Battle Report
Two forces face off in the Raid the Village scenario. I was able to get my militant monks and the Priest of St. Oswald (who I kept referring to as the Priest of Wimentun!) finally painted, so I was glad to get them on the table.

Napoleonic Battle Report with Rebels & Patriots Rules
Просмотров 390Месяц назад
It's been a long time coming, but here is my first Napoleonic battle report. After enjoying a participation game at Historicon featuring the Rebels & Patriots ruleset for a Napoleonic era game, I've been itching to give it a try myself. It's intentionally not your grand scale battle, but a smaller level skirmish between British and French troops.

A force of sergeants, led by a noble Knight Commander face a band of Outlaws in this battle report, using the Glory Seeker scenario. Both opponents must inflict maximum damage on the enemy... and neither disappoints! Featuring my newly painted and eagerly anticipated (by me!) Forest Slingers, the unique deployment map means both forces get stuck in immediately. To arms!

    Nice video. At around 11:30 did the foot knight command move at all? Once they fail their charge they have to roll another D6 to see how far they “stumble” forward but must stop at least 1” away from an enemy. The mailed spearmen just after, looks like a few of those are not within 2” cohesion either, might just be the camera angle though.

    Enjoyed watching Your game... Rebels and Patriots and Lion Rampant are good rule systems and are very adaptable, in my gaming group we use both sets for more formal battles and not at skirmish level.. I have even used these rules for a massed 6mm Napoleonic battle where each unit of 150 figures represents a brigade or division ... The main thing is we never remove casualties because for us it looks so much better and our figures of all scales are on multiple bases Look forward to seeing more Napoleonic action 😊

    I think one of the keys in this system is to make sure your assault units *don't* outpace your ranged units. The archers on the hill were hugely vulnerable to being driven off the board by a failed morale test, but they never really took fire. This is often the danger I get into with my Swedes in Pikeman's Lament.

  • @SteveSutton-t9h
    @SteveSutton-t9h 2 месяца назад

    A good video, well done. Just one small rule misinterpretation. When turning down opposing dice for HA you cannot exceed an equal result. Therefore a winning Archer result can't be turned into a losing Archer result. Armour only protects the unit, it doesn't make it more powerful in melee.
