We had one brigade of Vendeans have a secret deployment, which led to one of the funniest wargame moments I have seen in a while. The Vendean commander wrote down their "secret" deployment in the bocage and hid the paper under the gaming table. About 10 minutes later the French Republican commander says, "what is this?" as my 3 year old Golden Retriever dog handed him the paper with the secret deployment locations of the Vendean troops! You can't make this up! We laughed until our sides hurt. From then on, she has been known as the "Blonde Republican Spy"!
Too much fun!
The figures are from Hal's exceptional 15mm Vendean collection. Rules are Piquet - Les Grognards. Enjoy!
Superb!

Very nice, it's superb !
I have a skirmish project in the same way.
That´s a very nice set up there.
ReplyDeleteDid your Golden retriever get command of a regiment for her bravery?
