Unusual war

[FierceKitty]

There was actually some combat between England and the Mughal Empire in the late 17th century. Thus yesterday's battle, John Company's attack on Poonamabad, 1688. Indian victory, but with the army too battered to follow up and thump the palefaces.

Lee slipped up a few times, not realising the limitations of matchlockmen without bayonettes, or how deadly her artillery was against elephants. Unfortunately, I think she'll remember next time.

Don't Google Poonamabad - I made the place up using the name of an Indian friend.

Figures Pendraken and Irregular Miniatures, with a very few Magister Militum.

The blue banner announces "I've got a great big tonker," btw.

Sorry, unusual because Lee lost?
Great looking game, however.

Remember Curiosity killed the cat. (no pun intended)

The innkeeper's been dead for three centuries, and Hindus usually cremate the body. This can't be checked.

Is that a ruleset? If so, no; homebrew rules.

Yes, interesting approach to "Colonial War" before the concept of colonies really took shape.
