Title: AAR FPW Battle of the Border
Post by: kipt on 17 February 2014, 04:27:26 PM
We have just completed our second test of my adaptation of the Snappy Nappy rules by
Russ Lockwood.

A copy of the report is here.  Hopefully this will be visible.  :)

It's working at my end, I've just replaced the link with a different one as well, as sometimes there's issues with the spaces in the address link.

I used the Nafziger OOB's.  The unit organizations are noted in the AAR.  I could post a roster sheet if anyone is interested.

Very nice report, a French win, but did they retain the ground?

If I'm ever back in SF I'll be sure to swap notes!

According to Napoleon it was a tremendous victory.  One minute after midnight the French retreated, declaring they spent the night in Prussian territory.
