Battle of Craney Island - Second Session


Battle of Craney Island
Second Session 22nd September, 1977

(note the rest of the game photos for all sessions were not posted until 17 October, 2017 due to camera/pc problems.)

 The infamous Company of Independant Foreigners (actually three companies) in skirmish action with the 4th Virginia. The 2nd battalion RMs and the 102nd move toward the flank of the 4th Virginia.


 The British moves forward towards Craney island.



 The Americans roll the lucky (or unlucky depending upon perpsective) double six, which results in the loss of the British Artillery Commander and casualties to the three pounder gun team.



 The rocket brigade Falters. Things are not going well for the British land assault.



 Major Faulkener praises his 24pdr gun crew regarding the casualties against British artillery.



 The American two six pounder battery plus gunners in an infantry role guard the bridge.


Another disaster has befallen Col Beckwith's Brigade. Incredibly, the veteran RM 2nd Battalion has routed as a result of charging the inferior 4th Virginia regiment. Hopefully, british fortunes will improve in the next session.
