    Black Powder 15mm American War of Independence: Battle of Bolton Road
    This week we return to America, but dial back the clock to 1777 and the American revolutionary war, of American war of independence for a game of Black Powder 15mm ACW.
    This is our first time playing AWI using Black Powder rules, so hope you enjoy this weeks battle report.
    Watch and see as Georges American Continental army take to the field to defend the Bolton Road flank of their army and as they try to locate and hold off the advancing British red coat army… the battle is set, the armies are ready - both battalion’s and regiments of the Continental army are looking for revenge and to give the British a bloody and final blow.
    Another great battle, fantastic board and a few laughs and banter along the way…
    …but who will win, watch and see!

    Lovely looking table and armies. I’m going to give this period a go using 6mm miniatures and the ‘Live Free or Die’ rules.

      Excellent news, 6mm is a bit small for me, but George would say Gods own scale as he loves it!
      Great period to try 👍🏻
      Good luck and thanks for the positive comment 😊

    Never seen Black Powder in action before. Is it an I Go You Go system? I have a bit of an aversion to IGYG. Have you ever tried alternate activations by unit?

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  4 месяца назад

      Hi, yes it’s an IGYG, it actually works quite well as the game play is fairly fast paced and so the gameplay swaps over fairly quickly.
