The Grand Duchess' Coach: A Replay of a Classic Scenario


A replay of a classic scenario is in the works here at the Lead Gardens. This is the "Wagon Train" scenario from CS Grant, using only cavalry and light infantry units for a change of pace...Klein Krieg at it's best!

First some pics of the grand Duchess' coach and four (castings from Eureka miniatures) led by her Polish Uhlanen coach guard followed by a small detachment of Hussars forming a color party. The coach itself is closely guarded by a picket of 3 picked Red Croat sharpshooters (who have a better hit chance than normal light infantry)...followed by a unit of Grolstein regular dragoons. Following on a turn later is the rest of the Hussar unit.



An overview of the Coach escort column.
In the lead, the Uhlanen mercenaries, (favorites of the Grand Duchess...)


Across the table, Grostein Curaissiers in their start positions...heading to meet the coach column... though they will not move until turn five.  














The Bleiherzen ambushing force, is comprised of the newly formed Colonel Volger's Freikorps...


Plus a squadron of the the Kushchen Black Hussars...

and 2 squadrons of the Konigswald Dragoons...


and, an overview of the Bleiherzen right wing who's orders are to block the road and destroy the Grolstein head of coulumn, while Volger's men attack from the flank to capture the coach.



.....more in part 2...
