Battle for the Storehouse - Black Powder

- My first Napoleonic Black Powder battle report having spent 6 months painting up two armies (with plenty more still to paint!)
The French and the British collide over territory and the occupation of a strategic storehouse in an undisclosed corner of Flanders.
6 turns, ignoring broken Brigades, armies will fight until they lose 50% of their units.

Okay, I don't know how I missed this video a year ago but thought I'd comment regardless. First, your figure painting is gorgeous in the extreme. I think the scenario & army lists gave an overwhelming advantage to the British. Giving the strongest infantry unit in the Game Lists of all Countries, possession of the primary objective from the get go is ludicrous. Any expectation that the Guard or anyone else prying them out of a fortified position is fantastic thinking unless your playing with loaded dice. Putting my favorite cavalry unit of the entire period, the 5th Lancers, against the Cavalry unit with the STRONGEST STATS in the entire game, British Household Heavy Dragoons, is either insanity or malpractice. I still love your table & figures , also your camera work outshines any other battle reports.
Thanks for most of your comments 👍🏼 I think this was one of my earlier Naps games. If you watch the later ones you’ll see I painted up a lot more French to balance things out. Also remember though, battles are NEVER balanced. It’s always interesting to see how each side will get on when disadvantaged. On this particular one the French had a tough task. Try watching ‘Through the Mud’ and see how rough the British had it on that one. Thanks again for watching 👀
Great BatRep, lovely tabletop and gloriously painted minis! Looks like it was a really enjoyable game too. Thanks so much for filming & posting
Very kind Stu!
Beautiful table and miniatures! I’m really happy to see good and detailed battle reports of black powder. Keep up the good work
Very kind of you! Thanks. Once the nice weather ends I will get some more Naps battles done. Too nice to be inside over summer
Fantastic report! Love that you kept it to 30 minutes, easily digestible. Looking forward to more. Well done!
Aye thanks man. I quite like just rolling the dice and enjoying them game then just summarising each turn, bit lazy on the filming side from me haha
@@Drewheed1 I don't think it's lazy. It's efficient. Enjoyable either way. Kind of AAR style.
Great report Drew, stunning armies and terrain!
Thanks Stuart, very kind of you sir. Painting not quite at you level mind haha
Oh dear Drew, not much luck! Looks like a good game and nice video. Cheers!
You do a great job painting.
Great painting of minatures
Many thanks Phil, hope you enjoyed the bat rep
Cracking game Drew. A victory for the good guys too!
Thanks Dom. I think this must be my 10th lost game for me in a row, I can’t roll dice but I do get into some tricky battle situations, which is fun! Haha
Excellent game mate, great report, enjoyed that. Glad its not just me that gets a kicking as the French 😁👍
Thanks Martin. This is the culmination of 6 months of painting which was certainly kickstarted by watching your reports
Really good to see. Excellent figures and report. Keep it up!
Cheers for the game! Hopefully my luck continues next time haha
Fantastic report mate really nice job mate. Definitely hope to see more in the future. Both the ads look great aswell. 😁👍
F'ing wonderful looking table!
Thanks mate, very kind
Thank you for thus video
brilliant set up and minis!!
Thanks mate!
Not into "playing" but I love to paint miniatures and up until now "only" painted figures from Revell, Italeri and Zvezda. But I am very interested in the miniatures of Warlord Games / Perry Miniatures.
However what I noticed when looking through their catalogue is that most line infantry are in marching position. A few "shooters" here and there. Only the ones from the American War of Independence seem to have "firing ranks". Are the miniature sets really that one sided when it comes to poses? I don't mind not having any special poses like waving or pointing figures, but having almost none shooting (kneeling or standing) is a big turn off. Can someone here enlighten me if my perception is correct or am I missing something? I know some miniature sets allow for different poses/stances when assembling the figures; is this the same here?
When 3/4 of your British army is of Scottish Regiments there is only one out come.... Complete domination.
Haha very true! Have recently added the Yorkshire regiment having grown up there 👍🏼
