More shots at Mochkirch


On Wednesday the three of us set about the action at Mochkirch (see scenario in previous post). This time the Prussians drew a joker deployment card, which allowed greater freedom of deployment and to initially concentrate an attack on the centre from three directions. I'll not bore you with all of the details but, the action was fast and furious. Initially all went well for the Prussians. Their massed cavalry attacked with great success. Their infantry attacked the main village from both sides of the table and managed to gain a foothold - Peter's grenadiers (combined grenadier Btn 29 / 31) doing particularly heroically. However, by the end of the first night's play the Russians, led by Graham, were beginning to organise counter attacks. Everyone is having a good time with this scenario - it works, Huzzah! We will continue on Wednesday. Here are some shots of the nights action.
