Another Seven Years War raid

So on a Sunday morning, Ian decided he wanted to be the French cavalry (or as he kept saying Calgary force) attacking a British infantry column.
 Several companies of British Grenadiers take up flanking positions to keep off any attackers.

Then directly to their front, a line of French cavalry with two guns appear.

The British commander (me) decides to continue the advance, confident that musketry will break up any charge.

Two squadrons move in and proceed to shoot up and cut apart one British regiment.

 The 18th Regiment, Royal Irish Regiment move across the rive and engage the next charge.

Who are promptly destroyed.

 Despite their best efforts, the British kept getting destroyed.

Eventually, the British withdrawal but are then pursued by the French cavalry.
