Carlist Wargame

A couple of weeks ago Rob and I got together for another Carlist War game.  I really enjoy playing and painting the period with the variety of troops and great minis available.
We used the Sharp Practice rules by TooFatLardies and as in my mind I always find it difficult to game Napoleonics in a skirmish like setting I do feel these rules are as good as it gets for Carlist War games. We just use them as is and create some specific cards for the Isabilinos and Carlist to reflect their different fighting styles.
Rob created the scenario in which the Carlist had to supply a small village and reinforce their position . The Isabilonos had to prevent all this and preferably burn the village.
No complete turn by turn run-through or detailed report today. As some of you may have noticed I'm running kind of behind in posting and visiting the blogs. I've not given up though, actually I'm completely recharged with way too many plans as usual.
Next weeks I'm traveling a lot but will be back early September with more Mexicans, start of the Early French Naps and the return of the ACW...

Full picture report of the day
I've also managed to recover my Carlist Gallery after my struggle with MobileMe removing my pictures   some Months agao.
