    Brilliant game of Black Powder!
    I still can't get over how good these armies look. Nothing quite beats massed line infantry on the tabletop.
    Thank you for great content and really appreciate the Patreon early access video, lovely surprise ☺️
    Have a great bank holiday chaps.

      @@theministryofminiatures Well, George's dedication to these large armies is amazing. The amount he's painted to that standard would break lesser men mentally and physically lol. Well done George!
      Brilliant and no problem at all, pleasure!

      @TheGreyWolf94 indeed he has numerous large scale armies, so great that we can get them on the table.
      Cheers and Happy Easter!

      Burgoyne's soldiers collected a menagerie of pets on their advance. Do you know what happened to those animals, included bears, birds, dogs, after the Convention which was duplicitously turned into a mass surrender by the ever dishonourable Yanks?​@theministryofminiatures

      Thank you, we have another Black Powder game in a couple of weeks, we might return to ACW for a game or two, but like both eras…
      …Georges figures do look very nice so I understand the temptation, I ended up buying the Warlord Games Epic Gettysburg set on the back of our first game 😂

    Great battle report guys. What ranges of miniatures are you using for AWI

    • @theministryofminiatures

      The figures are mainly from Peter Pig, 15mm.

    Love the set up, without sound too much like a "homer" appreciate the outcome. Have always enjoyed the AWI era though haven't played may senariros. Although I think the United States separation from Great Britian began during the "French & Indian" war era.

      Thanks we enjoyed the game, the reinforcements were not known to me… although I knew I was due some at some point.
      A well deserved win for George and the Continental army… the position he got his force into and the dice rolls secured the fate of the British army.
      Glad you enjoyed it, we did and are glad we are able to share our battle reports with others.
      Thanks for the comment, it’s much appreciated 👍🏻

    What miniatures did you guys use for this battle? I went through Warlords site and did not see 15 mm AWI.

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  8 місяців тому +1

      There are a mix of manufacturers, but mainly Peter Pig, but I will ask George the other manufacturer.
      The figures have nice detail for 15mm and George has done a good job painting them.
      Thanks 👍🏻

    Can I play AWI with the 2nd edition book ? or do I need extra books as well as the rules ?

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  9 місяців тому +1

      We use the supplement book, it is a great book with loads of information on the war, armies and battles etc.
      I would need to check the rule book, but I believe there is some basic AWI stuff in there.

      You can play without any extra books. However the Rebellion! book is very good for added flavour, troop stats, history and scenarios.
