Day 1 – Battle of Aspern-Essling – Quickstrike AAR – 6mm Napoleonic’s Miniature Tabletop Wargame
For today's episode we go over a couple of towns outside of Austria, Aspern and Essling.
We have been invited by the Historical Napoleonic Gaming Society of Toronto to produce a quickstike after action report.
This 6mm wargame follows the music of the 1812 Overture and really demonstrates the complexity and design of that music.
We hope you enjoy this specially commissioned video.

For today's game, go go back to 1861, to replay the very first action of the American Civil War. This is probably the most even and replayable batte of the ACW, so we thought we would give it a try, let the commanders have the freedom to deploy however they would like, and see what could have happened. For this After Action Report, we used 6mm miniatures from Baccus 6mm, Buildings from Pico Arm...

    Impressive tabletop "re-fight' of this famous Napoleonic battle. 👍 [p.s. May I offer some helpful information for those who are new to Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance and/or Horse & Musket wargames and wish to learn more about the types of soldiers in these periods? Calvary is/was the name of the site immediately outside Jerusalem's walls where it is thought Jesus was crucified. 😢 CaVaLry are soldiers who fight on horseback. 😎 Also, Aspern (the place in Austria) should not be confused with Aspirin (the drug). 😂 ]

    I missed the title of the video and assumed you were playing Armada, so I was expectedly suprised when the rules were so different haha! But this is very interesting using Victory at Sea for Star Wars battles. Did you make many rule changes or custom units? Would you be able to publish them so we can play along?

    • @massiveepictinybattles
      @massiveepictinybattles ปีที่แล้ว

      The rules are actually perfect the way they are. I made the Ship cards from research on Wookiepedia and made. I liked how VAS rules focus on the weapons systems and how they can go down, so it transitions over very nicely. I still love Armada but these rules feel so realistic. Thanks!

      That sounds epic. I actually tried something similar, but it was just too much effort to paint 200 32mm Clones. I did actually manage to paint 10 squads of B1s and 6 Squads of B2s of legion models. Clones are hard though.
