ACW Battle in Umeå Sweden

Postby Metalworker » Sat Jul 31, 2010 12:13 am

Hi

This week a series of American Civil War battles took place at Tim's place. On Monday André and Tim's confederates fought Erik's and Peters Union forces in a total of 3 battles. The last one only between Erik and Tim. Today Anders, Peter and Tim got together again for some ACW gaming. The rules used for this was “Black Powder”. Below you can see some pictures taken of the fighting and a battle report.

Looks like the old 'welcome mat' method. Simple and effective. I know some who recommend cutting out a removeable section from the middle so models can be placed inside, but I'm not sure the suspension of disbelief is likely to be that damaged if your soldiers sit on top.

"You're a big man, but you're in bad shape. With me, it's a full time job." – Lt. Bromhead to Prince Dabulamanzi before the Battle of Rorke's Drift.
