I have been topping up the ACW collection in the last few weeks and have completed just over 450 CSA figures which gives me decent sized armies now for both sides . We had played Regimental Fire & Fury previously which are fine if a bit slow. I had picked up the Picketts Charge set last year so I thought it’s time to give it a run out - albeit solo today - as hopefully we are back to some face to face club gaming in September with the Old Guard mob so I have offered to run a game with them. I thought it played well . Few more turns to do through this week.
The scenario is the introduction one in the rules book at Antietam and the sunken road.
I still have cavalry to do for both sides . Martin has given me another brigade worth of painted stuff for the Union which I will rebase for consistency . And there is still some capacity in the Sally 4th RUB MDf inserts so might as well fill em!
Anyway a few shots of toys

Great ACW collection, Dave!

DeleteDavid, Excellent collection and nice table layout. I can see a lot of enjoyable games in the near future. I will be interested to see how you go with the Pickett's Charge rules. Looking at your forces, the original Fire & Fury rules should also work. Cheers Greg
ReplyDeleteThanks . Yes I am interested in a multi player PC game to see how that goes
DeleteLooking very fine indeed, nice painting!

DeleteGreat looking game, Dave! That fencing really sets the tone. Terrific stuff.
ReplyDeleteTruly wonderful collection Dave and the choice of scale and how you devise your terrain and look on the table is first class. Really enjoying this variation mate.
