The Battle of Lundy's Lane Wargame



Here is our Battle of Lundy's Lane wargame. As in history, it ended with a draw, in a few more turns the Americans' position would have gotten much worse.



Beginning Deployment



The cavalry melee and flank attack by the Americans. 

Both the British and the Americans get reinforcements. 


Ripley's Brigade attacks the centre, while Scott's brigade engages the light brigade on the flank.


The British lose much of the hill top, but British reinforcements have reached the area



Scott's Brigade begins to break, as US artillery positions on the hilltop.  Ripley's brigade moves into position on the hill as Hercules Scott's division attacks the other side.

  1. Looks to have been a hotly contested affair, as was the historical battle.
