Quote - 'where Fanes' B...Excuuuuusssss me:<br /><br />Quote - 'where Fanes' Brigade had forced a French Grenadier brigade to retire'. A three battalion British brigade against two French who's task was simply to occupy them.<br /><br />Quote - 'The French unsportingly brought up a 4 Pdr battery to canister range'. The French battery fired once, double one and went onto half effect being short of ammo resulting in 1 (one)! British casualty.<br /><br />Quote - 'British artillery surrounded by the Gallic Hordes'. They were a complete pain in the ****!<br /><br />Quote - 'The 95th, 60th and 50th blow away two battalions of French Grenadiers just outside of Vimeiro'. 'Blow away'. There still on the table ain't they.<br /><br />Quote - 'Lost for words now'. I'm not, Vivie La France!<br /><br />'where I impartially hope for a different result'. Says it all really.<br /><br />Seriously though it was a good game which I enjoyed very much and don't tell him but I agree that Scotty had lousy dice.<br />Dave.Dave Huntley (sheepman)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14728830987896678578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-761060067491038330.post-37872512798021566622013-05-11T04:52:14.668-07:002013-05-11T04:52:14.668-07:00You'll just have to redeem yourself at Ventosa...You'll just have to redeem yourself at Ventosa 😄3rd95thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040238806805751180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-761060067491038330.post-40121227497613255532013-05-10T22:18:26.645-07:002013-05-10T22:18:26.645-07:00It was a great game, but still cursing the dice, s...It was a great game, but still cursing the dice, scoring 2 &3.
