Thirty Years War in Hong Kong - Oldendorf 1633

[Keraunos]

Another big battle from the Thirty Years War at the club yesterday, pitting Swedish and German troops against an Imperial army in the 1633 battle of Oldendorf.

The allied commanders (mainly me) failed to emulate the historical commanders and secure a victory (though George on the left was doing well).  A full write up and more pictures here.

. Swedish brigades move slowly forwards

. Fighting breaks out on the allied left

. Swedish brigades finally close in but their flanks are not secure
