The 10 posted photos are from two wargames I set up and played solitaire.  The first was a hypothetical grand tactical problem which entailed forcing a river in the face of strong enemy opposition holding a formidable defensive position.  The second as a historical simulation of the Battle of Golymin.  Here the French are in close pursuit of Russian detachments withdrawing toward the east.  The French led by Murat and Augureau catch the Russian general Galitzin before he can retire through the town.  historically Galitzin fought a skillful delaying action and was able to extricate his forces during the night.
