We needed something that was appropriate for just a few units per side, and that looked sufficiently interesting in terms of terrain to give the armies a good 'run out'.
We settled upon an old favourite... The River Elbow, originally published as an article in The Wargamer's Newsletter c 1979, by David Barnes. The lovely sketches accompanying the original article are just so very special too.
Our game will be loosely based on this one, and I'll come to that in a future blog post.
For now, here is the original article.
Excellent choice!
ReplyDeleteI like this scenario, could work with my 40mm Napoleonic's, look forward to seeing your interpretation.

Sorry to come to this a little late Phil, but I now realise I had a go at this scenario myself a few years ago - in fact, 2012.It's great to see the whole article as well. Thanks for posting!
