Battle of the Brandywine 1777 refight

    The AWI game on Sunday has been announced as the Battle of Brandywine, also known as the Battle of Brandywine Creek September 11, 1777. This will see the American army of General George Washington and the British army of General Sir William Howe slug it out.
    I need to get my share of the Americans ready and refresh myself on the Black Powder rules.

Preparing for 1st game of the year

My first game of the year will be with the Conwy Wargames Club. One of our many members called Pete is organising an American War of Independence game in 28mm using Black Powder rules.

My contribution to the game is 2 x 16 man American infantry battalions and 1 x 16 man American light infantry, plus 4 generals and cannon. I'm looking forward to the game as I've never had a chance to play with these figures before.

Spotted in Wargames Illustrated

..... Me! I spotted my wonderful profile in the Lokhivitsa Campaign article. I'm in the overhead picture middle left being comprehensively beaten by Juho from Finland. Great game and to sound like a broken record I musty finish the AAR for all 3 games over the weekend!
