25mm pirates Barnacle Bill and Foundry saturday and description of Saturdays Pirate game 50th birthday celebration

Royal Navy reinforcements move in to attack the pirates from the rear as they skirt Zulu point island, but not before the Pirates had set fire to several structures including the Royal Governors vineyards. Pirates eventually gained full control of the town, Most destruction goes to
Ester and Grayson for burning the most structures in both games. But not before the Governors Artilery sank at least two of the offensive odeferous pirates near Skull islands point - As in Pirates of the Carribean, The Pirates stole the cursed silver plated skeleton and gor pounded by the slow loading artillery for their neferious deeds.

New wargame table completed

Well hope to have pics here soon of action on Lake Lightway in the new Soaring Eagles gaming table. Andy and I are almost finished putting it together, its a great 12 x 6 gaming surface that
looks amazing. We added 1 x 4's the length all around for potential 2x2 terrain boards to be added some time in the future. In the mean time its great having a lip that keeps the figures from falling off the table edge.

First game out of the box will be a Napoleonic action set in the Iberian Peninsula with a British Expeditionary force makes a landing to reinforce their Allies as the French approach to muck it up for them as much as possible. The new table will be a blessing from all that happened as Andy and I continue to make minor repairs from the floods of September.

wargames and life were postponed due to high tides -Flooding this week was quite a damper on things more pics on flooded area around the neighborhood

FIW 25mm British relief Column Ambushed by French Infantry and Indians-Sword in the Forest (TSATF)

Sorry for the delay. I've been a bit under the weather the last 2 weeks
Spike posted these great Pics for us. Hope shes feeling better.

A column of British forces cross at a ford on the way to reinforce the Garrison at Rivers Edge, French Allied Indians Hid in the woods Near the French gun boat on the River and lurk behind the swamp waiting for the Limeys to show themselves. Each white card marked a random entry point for French Forces. British troops entered on the road and were already deployed at the block house up river.

British troops deploy left and right of the column as French troops approach from both sides - More Indians are behind the swamp

Huron Indians trade musket fire with British light infantry across the swampAnother group of French Indians emerged from the woods delaying the British Grenadiers deployed at the end of the British column. Repeated Charges by the Natives saw them counting coup and collecting many scalps as they decimated the ranks of the British Grenadiers in fierce fighting at the banks of the River.

French Infantry(Swiss) have moved across the bridge connecting the Block house to the relief force cutting the Garrison off from badly needed reinfocrements as the Naval Gun runs out of ammunition. Also coming down of the Hill to the right is another unit of French troops which sealed the fate of the Garrison

French Colonial Milita have moved up cutting down the Garrisons pickets as
they move up to raid the Garrison tents for booty and force the remaining British
pickets to retreat to a defensive postion under the blockhouse

(The Relief column grounds to halt assailed from the rear by rampaging Indians and forced to deploy the highlander company to the front. While One Indian Unit was broken and the Couer de Bois with rifles did little to contribute to the French victory. The French Commander was gracious in vctory as he allowed The British Commander to march out with his remaining forces. Minus the supply train, 4 guns and the supplies already in the Blockhouse. Rumor has it the British Commander privately promised to return in the Fall to defend his honor and avenge this defeat.) it was an excellent game of Sword in Forest well played by both sides
