Black Powder AAR: France vs Austria

 

Last weekend my friend Tobias and I had a game of Black Powder with our growing Napoleonic forces.
My Frenchmen would be facing his Austrians. 

We took what we had painted and deployed to the gaming table.

Im sure that we made tons of misstakes because it was a couple of years since we played Black Powder and then it was the first edition. 

With all those Austrians cavalry on the table I thought it was just best to form squares with the infantry.

Wow, what a game. We had a blast.
We made tons of misstakes but we learned a lot.

Im sure we will play lots more of Black Powder, I had almost forgotten how fun it was.
