Crisis 2025 in Sint Niklaas (Belgium) is over

 The first Saturday of November was en is Crisisday. For years in Antwerp and now in Sint Niklaas. Although smaller and with no British wargames traders anymore, the show is imho great and worthwhile to goto.

Of course we had a demo with us and this year we took our (expanded) French Revolutionary game with us. Rules used were Balck Powder2 with some houserules. Figures as always a mixture of various firms although most of them were Eureka and Trent (former Emperor Toad) for the Dutch.

The scenario, situated in todays Belgian territory, was a simple one; a by the French revolutionaries besieged (Dutch occupied) fortress and an attempt by combined Austrian and British troops to relieve the fortress. The relieve attempt prompted a part of the Dutch troops to try a breakout.

So, up to some pictures of our game:























Maybe you recognise our fortress as it did already duty at our earlier 1692 table, but as the design lasted for some centuries with very little adaptions it can also function in the FR period.

So, underneath some pictures of other games and impressions of the show.
