Here at the Wargames Holiday Centre, we like to think that we are versatile enough to support the majority of gaming systems. The Centre provides the venue and all the figures, terrain and accoutrements to allow clubs and groups of friends to just turn up and start playing their favourite games. The difference here is that it is on a truly huge scale.
Last month we had a group of Age of Eagles enthusiasts visit the Centre for their third year running. They like to play the Fire & Fury system and have used the Napoleonic version for their games of Fuentes de Onoro and this year, the Battle of Wagram.
The rules operate at Brigade level.
The view of the table, showing a lot of the brigades still on tiles.
The game saw the French holding onto their left flank desperately while on the French right flank, there was a huge push across the river in order to turn the Austrian left flank.
The village of Aderklaa was hotly contested all weekend.
The guys came from all over the country and in one case, from the other side of the world, Australia, hello Mr Cook. The Brigade system worked extremely well with some huge formations slugging it out for quite a while.
We look forward to the next engagement.
