FYI -
Someone on the French side of yesterday’s battle was apparently using these dice??

They are average dice.
They have no 1’s or 6’s.
Probably didn’t help your chances in shooting or melees.

La Bataille d’Hougoumont

When:
Saturday, 27 February 2021
10:00am to 5:00pm
(GMT-07:00) America/Phoenix

Where:
The War Room

Description:
Game:  La Bataille d’Hougoumont
Period:  Napoleonic
Scale:  15mm    (1 fig = 20 men)
Rules:  General de Brigade (3rd ed)
With home rules for skirmishers and Formation Tests.  Also a few special scenario-specific modifications. 

Two and a half divisions of Reille’s French Corp assault the British and their allies who are defending the chateaux on the right flank of the allied line during the battle of Waterloo. 

Lots of troops. Lots of opportunities for glory. 

Starting a bit earlier than usual at 10:00 AM.  Try to come early (any time after 9:00 AM ) so we can run through the briefing and start on time. I'll order pizzas for lunch. So please RSVP so I can get an idea of how many to get.

Thanks to the seven guys who braved the wilds of Belgium to participate in the destruction of the countryside.

The battle got off to a bit of a late start due to much strategizin' on both sides.
So, we only got through just over half the turns. 
We agreed to schedule the finish in two weeks, however after consulting the oracle I find that March 13th is Karen's birthday and therefor all leaves are cancelled.

I need to move the game to March 20th. 
I've already put it on the club calendar.
That's three weeks away. 
Hopefully, most of you can make it.
You don't have to have played in the first half to play in the second.
Please RSVP as soon as you can so I'll know whether or not we'll have enough players.

In the meantime, here are my pics:

I know some of the others took pictures also.
