    We completed Marlborough’s “Big Four” by refighting Malplaquet. We Allied players didn’t do quite as well as the Duke. Brief and colourful photo-AAR here.

    Rough go.  Go to know the balance is there though, so maybe a 3rd go will get you those laurels!

    Thanks, chaps. I was back in my comfort zone last week, commanding the French wing attacking the Spanish at Ocana (Peninsular War, 1809). I felt much more at home in a game of sweeping manoeuvre, punch and counter-punch. How much of that was the less constrained movement rules and how much just my familiarity with said rules? A bit of both, no doubt.
