MT01 Philadelphia campaign

Charles Cab has withdrawn from the tournament..

Oh. Guess I am done then, I have played with anybody but him Good Luck everyone.

so by my calculations, even scoring full points for forfeit, the British semi-finalists are JR and Justin.
There is one significant match between Joe and John to determine the semi-finalists amongst the Continentals.

Germantown (MM01)

Renaud (British): 5 VP, 8 blocks lost
Jim D (Continentals): 1 VP, 20 blocks lost

With their opening fire, the Continentals did limited damage to my forward Light unit. Rather than pulling them and my Regulars to safer terrain, I took advantage of two Ranged Combat cards to attack with them, and that netted two VPs for the Crown. They eventually moved back, harried by the Continentals, and the Lights were eliminated, but the Regulars took and never released possession of Chew Mansion, despite repeated attacks. The relief force of two units of Regulars (one under Cornwallis) and one of Grenadier pushed back the Continentals with one more loss. But the Rebels came back again, with Greene’s militia joining the action. Unfortunately for them, the British delivered a blistering volley and set one unit of Militia to flight, delivering the 5th and last VP.

Round 6
EZPickens (British) 7 banners 39 blocks lost
Gonzo (Continental) 9 banners 34 blocks lost
Continental troops exposed in center able to fall back with losses to main line. British attack on left repusled with attrition on both sides. Continental holds ridge securely. British leaders jump on elite untis and charge. Able to kill some units but wore down and finally killed. A couple of unlucky rally rolls for mainly British ended game.
Thanks to John for good game.

Any plan for another Mini Tournament for the Holiday season, as this one is close to finalize ?

I was contemplating a Southern campaign tournament. Just trying to put a few tournaments to bed at the moment, but does the holiday season speed up or slow down match completion?

I dont know exactly how people feel but starting Halloween time I feel like playing more games including the Holiday season )

Semi-Final

Rfdoane (British) 3 Banners, 22 blocks lost

GonzoJ (Continentals) 9 Banners, 14 Blocks lost

Game played almost entirely on the British right. British immediately advance repeatedly and kill a Cont Reg with range fire. They followed with a Bayonet charge killing another Cont reg and a Militia. However, between those, the Cont played a sneak a march and brought the units on baseline into line just in time for a devastating Line Volley, killing a damaged Brit Reg and crippling the Ranger on the flank. The exposed Brit Gr took the flags and rallied back into friendly lines. Aggressive Cont push finished the Ranger and long range fire made the 2 Tory Provincial flee. 5-3 Cont after exchange (one for town). Brits regroup massive force on left/center, start exchanging range fire. Up to this point Cont had no Scouts, then drew and played 3 in a row. A German Lt took fire and saw the way the battle was headed and skedaddled.
Thanks to Rob for good game. I was sweating it at the beginning. British flank attack carried out with precision, but best laid plans...

Semi Final game 2

Gonzo (British) 9 banners 26 blocks lost

Rfdoane (Continental) 3 banners 28 blocks lost

Early range fire pushed L continental flank back. Rest of game fought on Cont right/British left. British pushed on far flank. Several Cont missed their rally rolls. British with 2 quick step cards closed. Pitched Battle in and around town buildings. Two Cont leaders went down with the town. Continentals got no scouts (though played a CA on one for the banner). Thanks to Rob for the match. Really nip and tuck in the battle for the town, Several critical rolls went the British way however.
