Battale of Boldon Hill 1644

This can only be a vaugly historicval scenario as little detail of the acfual battle was recorded & survived.

The English (Mike, Mark & SteveJ) start deployed on the plateau with 8 cav (2 heavy), 4 pike & shot & 2 musketeer units.
The Scots (Jim & Chris) start deployed on the river flat with 6 cav, 5 pike & shot & 3 musjketeer unkits & 3 guns.
The objective is to control the road junction & the road off to the left in the pic.

Both sides sent their cavalry onto the plain on the left.  Tye Scots supported their cav with a pike & shot unit & their artillery.
In the centre the Scots took the house then lost in a counterattack.  But the Scots won the fight in the field to the left of the house & on theright of it the English fell abck up, the hill in the face of superior  munbers.  This left the unit in the house isolated & it fell back.

The English cavalry forced the Scots P&S on the hill to from hedgegog & musket fire accross the stream decimnated it.  But the distraction of the P&S support gave the Scots cavalry near parity in the cavalry fight & with good dice they held theri own.
The Scots  on the left of the house retired back over the creek as their victory was phyrric. 
On the right, the Scots infnatry swarmwed up the hill with supreior numbers & routed the English left.

At this stage the English still held control of the road to the left, but had lost more than half their force.  So both sides were happy to call off the fight & claim victory.
