JR01 Killiecrankie - 27 July 1689

4 games played :
3 victories for the Jacobite side : 6/3 - 6/3 - 6/1
1 for the Government : 6/4
Highlander charge is very powerful !

I agree about the Jacobite charge. Played twice, both times the Jacobites won 6-3. After some initial Government success, once the Highlanders closed it was all over.

Government win 6-5, coming from 1-5 down. The McLeans routed the Government Regulars, Highlanders and a unit of Militia but just could not destroy the last block of Militia and its general, which would have secured the win.

The Jacobite allied regulars in the building broke and ran on the first flag. Yes - thanks for the help! Dundee's mounted charge fled the artillery to the back of the board where it rallied at full strength. Hasting's and Mackay's regulars then blew Lochiel's and Cannon's Highlanders away causing them all to rout.
