The Battle of the Eglise sur la colline (Part Two) , in which things do not go well for the French

 


The gallant Prussian Artillery Officer has to man the gun single-hand (the dice tell how long it is going to take him to load it)


The Franc tireurs move up to support the Line Infantry.


The Prussia Uhlans charge the French Hussars !


The Cavalry melee !


-does not go well for the French ! 


The surviving Hussars rout off the tabletop without even pausing to consult the rules .


On the other flank things do not go well either , having taken 5 casualties the French fail their moral check and retire one move (hence the dice) will they rally next move ? . To be continued .......

  1. What a change in fortunes for the French, it was looking pretty decent after the first turn but this one has been a bit of a disaster for them! What will happen in the next turn?
