Napoleon's Battles - Testing Out New Casualty Markers Again

After last week's game I was inspired to make some more casualty markers.  These are designed to be part of the formal unit and have a counter that rotates to show casualties.

This time Stefan was the Allies, and I was the French.

Deployment using one of the club's fancy mats, special trees and a built up area.
The terrain pieces were just for show.

The Dutch-Belgian cavalry charged a French brigade,
but Pire's lancers came to their rescue.

Kellerman, who was to prove the hero of the battle,
launches a devastating attack with his heavy cavalry
on some poor Brunswick infantry.

Not to be out done the divisions of Picton and Cooke attack the French left held by their 5th Division.

The full battlefield as that attack goes in on the French left.
Picton's attack failed miserably,
but Cooke with the British Guard powered on.

Jerome gets in trouble in the French centre.

Cooke keeps on pushing, but with limited success.

Unfortunately, I failed to take any more photos.  Cooke, hit in the flank by Pire's lancers, failed to form square and was routed.  Meanwhile, the French heavy cavalry, led by Kellerman, wiped out the Brunswick corps in some deadly pursuit and controlled recalls.
