    Almost 2 1/2 hours of total entertainment! Absolutely beautiful. This was my first look at V&F and the rules seem to stand up very well. It was was hard fought battle by both armies. I will definitely follow your upcoming campaign. Thanks for your effort!☝☝

    A mere two minutes into the battle I am compelled to express my profound shock at seeing the RHA battery, presumably equipped with 6 pounders, attempting to “suppress” part of the French Grand Battery (12 pounders, one assumes) not only because of the slim likelihood of achieving this aim, but because it is in direct defiance of Wellington’s well known prohibition of counter-battery fire, which is bound to bring upon them not only his Grace’s wrath but the immediate return of vastly more destructive fire in their direction. Which of these they have reason to fear more remains to be seen.

    • @basement1908
      @basement1908  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Outstanding knowledge! I had no clue that Wellington discouraged counter battery fire. Makes total sense though. I hope the rest of the Battle is somewhat enjoyable. Thank you for the education and have a great rest of your week 👍

      Thank you. I failed to notice whether the difference in calibre of the guns was reflected in the rules though it would be strange if not. I have the printed edition from Wargames Illustrated but haven’t read it yet.
      I’ve now watched the battle until the end, which I rarely do with videos of this length, and your enjoyment was infectious. I’ll definitely watch more of your battles, not least because of your amazing set-up, probably the most impressive I’ve ever encountered. I have to say I’m thoroughly jealous!

    What a way to spend a lazy Sunday here in London, just watching this battle unfold , loved all of it
    Gotta say, tactically I would have left a defensive/blocking force at the north bridge allowing an extra unit to support a push towards the "built up" area, also would've advanced the highlanders a lot sooner , I guess hindsight is a bitch Great stuff as always Steve

    Are you playing a 1st edition or 2nd edition game? If using 2nd edition when a brigade fails a Fortitude test, Shaken units rout (pick up) units within 6" of the enemy take 1 hit and C-in-C gets a defeat marker, that is all. in 1st edition (which is what Little wars TV reviewed) an entire brigade would disappear on one failed fortitude test.

    One question I have.
    when a column makes melee contact with a line which is obviously much longer, why does the line not curl around the flanks of the column?
    I was thinking this when the British column on the middle right went up against a French Line near the house 53:52?

    • @basement1908
      @basement1908  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is definitely what happened in reality (from what I've read). The rules don't cover that, unfortunately. I guess it's just the price for having a quick fun game versus a fun more simulation type war game. Plus, I might have missed something in the rules or the errata, I am.by no means.an expert.

      As far as gameplay what would be accomplished by wrapping around the column? Units in line during melee get more dice; you add half the fire value.
