I am starting a series of linked battles based on the 1688 Dutch invasion of England, only this time James doesn't run away.

First game was played using Pike & Shotte rules. Pictures and brief report on my blog http://kerikerigamer.blogspot.co.nz/

Good looking set up.

Interesting game and nice AAR.

Look forward to the rematch!

Cracking looking table and figures and a great idea, I am thinking of trying something similar myself. :-bd :-bd

Excellent! Enjoyed the pictures and the read. For me one of the must interesting periods to game. I wonder has Churchill already turned to William or is that yet to come? I'll wait for the next episode  :)

A very good illustrated report and blog.  :-bd
Must try to dip into the blog in future. Are your rivers scratch built or commercially bought?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Scratch built, plywood with polyfilla & sawdust banks, rivers are painted and then covered with PVA

Nice job; tried the same thing myself some time ago - got James' lot completed but never got around to doing the other side!  Good to see this one.

I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.
