Battle of Bennington

 Place is pretty much in lockdown due to Corona so we've taken the chance to play a AWI game, the patriots (left) are attacking a hessian camp full of redoubts

 Stark leds the assault (pity he left his suit at home)

 Hessians in the advanced redoubt

 They deploy in line to fire better

 Early in the battle Breymann comes in with the reinforcements

 The americans move in a double pincer

 Flanking right

 And left

 A lively fire soon erupts in the center

 The militia has reached the british rear, but the reinforcements arrive to plug the gap

 The forward redoubt is evacuated by outflanked mercenaries

 A deadly crossfire batters the militia

 The supplies are in danger so a batallion of hessians wheels about

 The germans charge the milita

 Who surprisingly repels them

 More milita deploy in line to menace the center

 The hessians fall back, but with a crashing volley send the rebels packing

 The  avantgarde deploys into line to counter the attack

Time has run out and the patriots retire form the field, leaving a battered but intact german force that rejoins Burgoyne's army with vital supplies
