Small French Revolutionary game testing new rules

 We came across new Napoleonic rules by Keith Flint called "Shadow of the Eagles". 

As we use his SYW rules already for our 15mm figures of the WAS period we though about trying out these for our 28mm French Revolutionary figures and our 15mm napoleonic ones.

So yesterday evening we cobbled together a small scenario and tried out various events of our miniatures battle.
We must say we like the rules but as these SotE rules are of the simpler kind there will of course rise some questions or there will be situations which are not covered but, to be honest, with our first usinf we didn't ave a lot. 

As our tabletop wasn't big we used the suggested organisation of 16 infantry and 8 cavalry figures and liked that scale so maybe we will rebase (or reduce permanently) our 28mm units to that scale even when using other Napoleonic rules. 
As we were used to different strength units (according to OOB of real battles/campaigns) it was  strange to see the units all of the same strength but this has its advantages. 
What is great imho is, that Keith tries to explain his line of thinking as the background of his rules in the rulebook together with campaign notes from French Revolution up to 1815 plus adds some scenarios.

And when that isn't enough, there is always the possibility to ask questions at his forum. 

We will try the rules some more but as said we like them. Great job done.
