Action Ends

The Prussians held the flank.

Thanks to the yellow hussars and the gun battery.

The Austrian hussars lost the melee and retreated taking the Croats with them.

The remaining Austrians....Grenzer grenadiers and the Hungarian regiment decided it was time to withdraw. 

A most enjoyable little scenario.

Game Update

Austrian.... Loudon grenadiers are on the run. The Hungarian infantry and Grenzer grenadiers have taken the farm.

Prussian Frei-Batt Mayr and jaegers have been battered and retreating. The Prussian grenadiers are about to have a fire fight with the unformed Hungarian infantry in the farm.

The cavalry melee is crucial for both sides....the winner will probably dictate the outcome of the game.

Another Building Module

Painted yesterday in the rough and aged process. This painting style is not to all tastes. But I enjoy sploshing the various paints on with a big brush! 

Next up....the church. That will be after IR20 are based.
