I’ve never seen a historical refight where people moved the same as the real battle.

I’ve played in loads of historical rights that had troops start in the same positions then allowed players to do what they liked… I once killed Napoleon at Austerlitz when my Russian Guard Cavalry rode through the French lines and over him…

Virtually all the articles I write for WSS magazine are scenarios based on real life engagements and they seem very popular… maybe it’s just Battlegroup players but they seem to love scenario based games as much as pick up games… perhaps more.
