A General d’Armee Battle report. It’s June 1815 and Napoleon orders a French Division to fight across a stream to drive off a Prussian rearguard but the clock is ticking,...
Oh,... and check out GM Alcove for some more General d’Armee goodness

Wonderful game. Nothing like a Napoleonic game for grandeur,. The thought of the effort required to paint so many Napoleonic miniatures is mind blowing.

Lovely game Scott, really nice table as well. Loved your AAR, the double 6 for skirmishers we forgot that as well, that it's not a Destiny but a DT instead. Grenadier grade only counts as Veteran for morale purposes.

Been a lot of years since I played Napoleonic's.I remember playing the 1813 Battle of Dresden where I commanded a mixed force of Old Guard and Bavarian's and drove the Austrians back from the gate

Love GdA so great to see you playing a game. We’ve completed the 1815 campaign and can’t recommend it enough. Great scenarios and all real nail biters. Give us more boys, and can you ramp up the music in the background, every wargamers favourite theme tune!!! 🤣😂🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Absolutely would love to see some more GdA!!! Stunning figures as well as a beautiful table! I think if you could show more of the dice rolling for firing and charges, but left out the actual movement of the units, that would be great. It would add to the tension of the game without dragging out the video too much. Although, truth be told, I’d be happy watching a complete runthrough, with all the steps. If the video gets too long, just make it a two-parter!!

Great layout! What scale and miniatures did you use? Calpe? Victrix?

@CheckYourLeaderTV 4 жыл бұрын

Trevor Hoffman hi 👋 The miniatures are predominately Calpe with some Perry for the Prussians and a mix of Perry, Calpe and a few (not many) Warlord Games for the French. 28mm .

Lovely looking table and models. Not necessarily every dice roll but some play through explanations of some of the rules would be nice. Our group hasn't quite got our heads around the retireing/retreating actions. Only played twice though.

Didge H. Have you seen the TFL’s series of videos explains the rules? Rest assured the next battle will be more involved and cover each aspect of the rules in closer detail. This was my first GdA video and I wasn’t sure my audience wanted it.

great stuff! can i ask; is that one of the 'killing fields' fur gamemats...and if so; did you too expect it to be browner...? i recieved mine ( bought through "The wargaming company') and its green as with zero shades of brown....aaargh.

It’s a Killing Fields mat. It’s exactly what I expected. I have two and I’ve trimmed down sections of the second one and it’s much darker if trimmed.

@@CheckYourLeaderTV Cool! yeah...i just expected it to have at least some subtle shades of brown due to the pics they have on their site being really quite brown...as a green grassy field its great, its just thats not the color i bought it for based on their pics...oh well, never mind! It looks great in your report and it will look great im sure when i find that shade im reoresenting. I also fancy their clump/tufty finish one so long as theres no suprises in tone there also. Enjoying your work. Regards, Dan
