Battle of Leuthen 1757
15mm Seven Years War Game at RAPIER 2018 in Jacksonville, Florida, USA
Game Masters Brent & Mike from the Jax Garrison club fought this Seven Years War game on the battle of Leuthen 1757, using Black Powder Rules by Warlord Games and 15mm hand-painted figures.
The RAPIER 2018 convention program entry:
Historically: This was a Classic “Frederick the Great flank March and oblique attack” crushing the Austrian Army. The Austrians were “swept away” in all arms (By “superiority of maneuver…” and other qualities.)
The miniature game, though, had its own story. See the images below.
