Musket Action: 7 Years War

 Chris' French v. Jim's British in a small 7YW battle.
A change from AWI - no Indians, less terrain & more cavalry.

The French are on the right.  They have cavalry on both flanks, their artillery on their right  & grenadiers in reserve.  The Brits have all their cavalry on their right next to their guns supported by grenadiers.  They have a light coy on the far flank behind the village.

The British are advancing on the left & extending their right.  The French are advancing in the centre.

On the far flank the French cavalry have charged & broke thru the first line. 

The British cavalry have charged on the right breaking half the French horse in the first impact.  The French cavalry on the far flank have been broken by a crossfire of musketry, but the French grenadiers have come up to counterattack.  There is an indecisive but deadly firefight going on in the centre.

On the far flank the Hessians & Light infantry are holding their own against the grenadiers.  The dour struggle continues in the centre.  On this flank the French have left their flank vulnerable. 

On the far flank the grenadiers are flanked by the light infantry & dying fast.  The French infantry have charged with some success in the centre.  But a converging attack on the French left by the British artillery, grenadiers & cavalry has destroyed their left & caused the French to fail their Army Break Test.

These rules are very old school with casualty removal but with a BA style move sequence. They make a quick & enjoyable game & 7YW troops look so good.
