Rebels and Patriots game at club

As someone who like the Lion Rampant series by Dan Mersey, I'm waiting on the arrival of Xenos Rampant. 

In the meantime, we played Rebels and Patriots at the club. It was scenario B from the rulebook. A friend did the rafts from 3d file prints I provided. 

The situation is that the French defenders have 3 rafts moving down a river, from left to right in picture. French reinforcements will arrive at the right edge. The attacking British approach from the top and bottom table edges.  




The rafts move off and in the first turn there is a collision and some damage. If rafts take too much damage, they sink. 





Native skirmishers approach the river to fire on floudering rafts. 





One raft collides with the bank, just as natives and rangers approach. Another raft has sunk by receiving damage. 


British clash with French reinforcements. 



The rangers about to capture a raft. 

The game ended with a British win. As the game was so quick, we reset the table and swapped sides. In the second game the rafts had a bit of colliding but soon picked up speed and were well down the river before the British could get to the banks to stop them. 





They were two great games and we'll probably play them again.
