The Battle of Breed’s Hill : 17th June 1775 (Setup)

We plan to play the battle this weekend and having setup early I thought I would experiment with a video. much harder to control than still photos. But it gives a good sense of the Battle to come πŸ˜€


Looking forward to seeing if General Howe and the Grenadiers can repeat or improve on their historical efforts.

    Very effective Matt and great to see you terrain and figures in close detail, as they look lovely. Frankly I don't fancy assaulting that redoubt as it looks a formidable task. Let's hope the brave British perform better than of late...

      I am slightly worried the redcoats don’t have it in them to break through we will see !

    Oh, this looks terrific, Matt! You may have a second career as a cinematographer.

    A great way to set up and introduce your refight Matt. Sit back for a while and use the artillery would be my advise, and don't send the light infantry along the beach in column to assault any rail fences that might be in evidence!
