I made Crimean-era ImagiNation armies with mostly 1/72 plastics picked up dirt cheap at a convention for my two sons, and we play a modified version of Morschauser's horse & musket rules. Sometimes I think it would be fun to try Charge! instead (I have that one as well).Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04780425923108876647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-75580007212748887402012-09-05T00:02:56.964-07:002012-09-05T00:02:56.964-07:00Thanks for your responses.

I plan to add a few more units to add to the numbers as he gains in experience. <br /><br />I have some RSM95 Infantry and Jacdaw artillery to paint and will get at least one more squadron of cavalry done this year. <br /><br />He stills likes his trains and playing Football and Rugby - but hopefully the seeds are sown. <br /><br />Mark<br /><br /><br />Mark Dudleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13331203191073034775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-87117620533670860272012-09-04T16:22:48.277-07:002012-09-04T16:22:48.277-07:00Very enjoyable battle report and the troops look g...Very enjoyable battle report and the troops look good.<br /><br />No doubt your son will look back on this with fond memories, Mark. I have good recollections of playing Avalon Hill wargames with my Dad as a kid. Although at the time I preferred playing baseball to serving as cannon fodder in Tactics II, some of that passion for gaming rubbed off on me. <br /><br />Regards,<br />SteveCorporal_Trimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00376387688651637091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-47350936990265735362012-09-04T08:45:09.476-07:002012-09-04T08:45:09.476-07:00Fantastic experience for the six year old!

A close call here for the Imperialists, by the look, but it shows that assaulting a defensible line of linear obstacles ain't no walk in the park.
