A loud and boistrous Marlburian clash at the NWS Games Day

This shot of old friends Marty and Steve took me back to the old photos you would see in Battle Magazine.
Lots of fun had (mostly) at the NWS Gaming Day a few weekends ago.  Lovely to see Steve's Brits and Danes out against Marty's Bavarian's and Phil's Austrians (actually SYW figures but he wanted to give them a run!).

The British lines start to fall back

A little earlier in the battle - all Front Rank figures which are lovely

Cookies Austrians doing their best to hit the British and Dutch hard

It was a great deal of fun and a very close run thing with the British managing a win at the end as the combined Austro-Bavarian forces reached breaking point.

    1. Thanks once again Mark. It was a good one to play in as well for the most part...small disagreement at one stage on movement however resolved quickly. Typical old wargamers who have played each other for decades!

  4. It was great to be able to be there to see these grand fellows 'in the flesh'; and the figures too!
