Battle at the Bridge a BLB2 batrep

Our last test game using Beneath the Lily Banners 2, before I get all the other Rejects involved. The Battle for the Bridge.

The English and their Allies await the French.

The French arrive at the tables edge, unfortunately Richard who was playing the French threw
and received a Plodder as a leader. While the English commander was Skilful.

The English advance toward the bridge.

The French are led by regt La Guiche.

Prince George of Hesse-Darnstadt and Leslie's take the bridge.

A surprise French Dragoon unit appears at the rear of the Allies lines.

More French line arrive.

The English Guards turn and race towards the empty town, while a French Dragoon and Horse regt march down the road.

Heyden's and the Blue Guards turn to counter the French surprise attack.

Gutted!!! For movement the French rolled a 1, giving him no movement this turn, giving the Allies time to
enter the town un-opposed.

Also this gave the Allies time to move forward and give fire to the French Cavalry, as you can see
they took heavy casualties.

The English artillery scored a few lucky hits on the Elite French column, Richard moved into a line.

Charge!!  Tyconnel's lose the melee then flee off table.

Still waiting!!!

The Danish Guard get their first outing.

As does Richard's newly painted regt Greder.

La Guiche move to the side to let the fresh La Courronne charge.

Richard attaches his Commander to La Courronne for the Charge.

And pays the ultimate price losing his life!! And there we ended the game.
