He has now positioned the batttlefield to the north of Preston. When I first saw the table I though the rebels were all bottled up, but so of the opposing forces were just positioned on table for show.
Rebels on the left leaving Preston. Bottom right is Vavasour on table. Next is Nevil and then top right is strictland. I took command of the rebels centre and right, all infantry except for Lee's and Bradshaw's personal bodyguards.
I took a few pictures to start and then got stuck into the game
Bradshaws force with Banastre
Nevil's force
The deciding moment, after almost being driven into the hedge Banastre's cavalry fight back and break the royalists. It then allowed me to attack Nevil's pike block in flank with Lee's bodyguard.
It finished with a resounding rebel victory!
It's now a nicely balanced small scenario that could swing either way. I'll probably give it a try at Deeside using Hail Caesar.

And the show - very friendly, lots of chat, but I didn't buy anything!
