American Civil War

Four units, two cannon and a commander from the pictures I put on my blog from the last game.

Then he needs to do 5 more units!

And a commander! Get on with it Wes!

Just a heads up. The odds of me painting the required amount of stuff in time are increasingly unlikely.

How much of it will you not have done out of the 5 stands?

Is this a sweepstake scenario? Can I put my money on "all of them"?

As a potential alternative, should I see if I can rustle up a different scenario?

Can do, we could just do a batallion less each. Depends how much of a let down he is...

I'm sure I'll be able to find something remotely similar.

OK! We should however prepare ourselves to spend sunday morning letting him know how much he's ruined it all...

I have started painting and hope to get at least a couple done. Just depends how much free time I get over the next couple of days.

Good man!

I'll assume that, in the absence of other options, I'll bring my hills and small trees (for dotting around). My big hill isn't the right size, but it's something.

Do we have the right streams for the game?

I don't think so but you never know what might be for sale tomorrow!

I've spent part of today creating a new scenario for Black Powder.

It's a smaller one that might make for a decent one on one like last night.

Stuff required...

Union:

4 Commanders
5 Regular Infantry Units
3 Large Infantry Units
1 Cavalry Unit
3 Artillery Batteries

Confederate:

3 Commanders
7 Regular Infantry Units
1 Large Infantry Unit
2 Cavalry Units
1 Tiny Cavalry Unit
2 Artillery Batteries

Also, in an ideal world we'd have loads of woods, fences and a couple of two level hills.

It's sort of a meeting engagement where forces are being rushed to the area.

I have everything in the confederate list except I have a small cavalry unit, not a tiny one

Arguably you could use a spare command stand as a tiny cavalry unit.

Don't have any large Union infantry units.

Yet...

Crack on Matt, you're letting us all down...
