Sharp Practice @ Britcon - 28mm Napoleonic

At Britcon 2019 there will be one Napoleonic period using Sharp Practice.
Rule Set: Sharp Practice 2
Period: Napoleonic (Peninsular War 1809-1812)
Scale: 28mm Tables: 6ft x 4ft
Forces: French Empire vs Allies (British, Portuguese, Spanish)
Army Size: Doubles - 2 x 50 points per side.
Players can either enter as a pair or be assigned a partner - please contact David if you have any questions.
There will be both team and individual awards for places (which might make for some interesting friction between allies!).
Book via the Britcon Booking Page
Format: Teams will be matched from round to round to ensure nobody plays on the same table twice and nobody plays the same opponent twice. Teams who have lost their previous game who are matched against an opponent who won their previous game will have choice of table edges and role in the game (eg attacker/defender), if applicable.
Campaign: There will be a campaign map. Depending on the results of the 5 games we shall see if either faction can break the enemy's lines over the weekend.
