We were playing this What If scenario based on a Vandamme's corp attack at Wavre. Four players using the Over the Hills Rules, which seem to us to capture a better flavour of the period than Black Powder. Figures are all 10mm.
 |
| Prussian defenders weather the French cannons |
 |
| French storm the first bridge |
We rapidly adjusted the rules for opposed bridge crossing into a built up area by breaking it down by combat rounds. First turn only the bridge counted, second turn only the built up area counted and finally if the french were in the buildings there were no tactical disadvantages. this interpretation gave the french at least the prospect of a break in.
 |
| French finally storm into Warve |
 |
| Russian Prussian legion awaits to counter charge |
 |
| Fire fight on the Dyle |
 |
| Prussian garrison of the mill |
 |
| Swiss storm into the mill backed by a division of infantry |
 |
| Prussian Cavalry Brigade |
 |
Even More French

This game played well and Vandamme was able to pass over the Dyle, took Wave, but not drive the Prussians off the table. we took this to be a victory for the French
