New Waterloo computer game (which I have), OK with reservations, however they're doing a computer animated reconstruction in realtime starting 11.30 UK time, might be fun.

Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.

Well spotted, Cam. Got it (via another topic  :-[ ) and now tuned in.

Game is being hosted by Slitherine using their Scourge of War: Waterloo game and is being used in parallel with a miniatures game by the looks of things. Here's a trailer for the computer game.



Here is a programme of events. All are listed in Central European Time (CET).

11:30 – Initial Attack on Hougoumont (30min)
12:00 – Attack on Pappelotte (30min)
12:30 – 2nd Attack on Hougoumont (60min)
13:30 – Count d'Erlon's Attack on the Allied left (60min)
15:00 – Attack on La Haye Sainte (30min)
16:00 – Battle of Mt. St. Jean (30min)
17:00 – Defense Against Arriving Prussians (60min)
18:00 – Prussian Attack on Placenoit (60min)
19:45 – Defence against Napoleon's Imperial Guard (45min)

From what I've seen so far, it also appears to include a miniatures game running in parallel. Here is another link.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
