What to do when bored at work. Well make a wargame of course... for a day of fun... I mean hard work...
So using Bob Cordery Portable wargame rules with some tweaks I decided to do Waterloo.
Unfortunately Hougomont has been lost but Brit cav on flank have done well. Still close though British casualties at 19.5 and French at 20.7. Best unit of the match so far Sharpe rifles but they have been pushed back by some encroaching cav and heavy artillery fire. Did not get to complete the game but was pleasantly surprised how historically accurate it played out. It was clear by the end that the French would get to a point of having to commit the guard only to be surrounded and annihilated. Will be playing this more.
