One of the tweaks was allowing mounted to dismount and fight as rifles.

THE GAME
(Remember: click on the pictures for a bigger version )
The White Russian troops deployed for battle
The Chinese
Ths Russians advanced to hold a line between the impassible mountain features.
Gary – commander of one of the Chinese forces.
Rick – the other Chinese commander
Christian – Commanding the East-Asia Cavalry Division
Jackson – commanding the Russian Rifle Division
BLAM!! I think this was the first unit knocked out of action – Jackson’s Field guns blasted some Chinese cavalry to bits
The Chinese close!
The lines are broken up a bit as both sides start taking casualties – the Chinese taking the worst of it. Rick’s Chinese pull back a bit.
More of the same from the other side.
Here’s where it ended – Russians surrounding a pocket of Gary’s Chinese, and a Rifle unit even attempting to overrun Gary’s command! The Chinese Warlord survived, but the Chinese lost at the end of this turn…
The game played out quite well. Now how am I going to find time to paint some dismounted cavalrymen before the Campaign weekend!?
