Thought it was about time I had another solo Black Powder scrap in the Crimean...this one is fought using my 2mm Crimean forces from Irregular with some basic adjustments on distances [divide all distances by 3 & use centimetres...simples :cool: ]. This was fought on my 3' x 2' mat. Each single base is a unit; white dice denote hits, red = stamina reached, yellow = shaken, blue = disordered.

Opening exchanges - fire is reasonably effective:
Getting stuck in and the melees are vicious:
Ebb and flow - with the decisive cavalry battle on the British left flank:
Bloody & determined defence - it's desperate - but the Russians lose out to strength in depth:
The British take the field:
