It proved to me that the rules work and can produce battles that have unpredictable outcomes.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Bob<br /><br />PS.

It was very tense and the German cavalry did pretty well overall - they destroyed the British artillery (ruining themselves as they did so) and pushed back their opposite number on the other flank.<br /><br />It was incredibly tense to play and the final game turn resolved it but it could easily have gone the other way. I have never seen so many 1s rolled by a side succession as the Germans did!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-82449789156823630552012-11-07T00:59:15.917+00:002012-11-07T00:59:15.917+00:00What a great scenario, David!
