Slackers 2023 my first wargame convention in Halifax

 We did the Battle of Talavera 1809.

The final attack. Royal Artillery gives cover fire as a British infantry brigade of regulars and Highlanders with a cavalry unit on the right. Both French unis destroyed which meant by points we won!

My Rifles threw out the Voltigeurs to my front. These would then become the focus of the French centre

The British cavalry attempt to flank the Fremch right 

While the Spamish on the left launch a bayonet charge

The river to my front was actually dry

The centre of the Battle. I'm to hold the hill
