The
Army of Prince Maximilian II Emanuel Wittelsbach Elector
of Bavaria
The shot above shows
the 12 battalions of Bavarian Infantry, with artillery deployed ahead of
them. The figures are a mixture of Old Glory, Bloodaxe and Irregular.
This game was laid out
as a play test and the terrain is unfinished. You will notice that the
roads are flocked to show wheel ruts. The brook section will also be sprayed
and flocked when it is completed.
This is a close
up of an Bavarian artillery piece. You can see an ammunition case in the
foreground used as a disorder marker. The hoard advancing form the
distance are the two lines of Prussian infantry.
Here we see a 2 regiments
of Bavarian horse. The guard regiment to the right was only one squadron
sized company at Blenheim, but as the Cuirassiers to their left should
be 6 squadrons, instead of 4, I elected to use the other 2 squadrons of
Guards that I had. One of the few and small pieces of artistic license
we can take as wargamers.
