Bunker Hill part II

The British flanking march was successful.  Bill's riflemen put up a 3 to for turn fight to hold a barn on the flank while the howitzer and 12 pounder whittled away at the colonists holding the redoubt and barricades.  Mark advanced along the British right flank, slowing bringing his 6 pounders in to canister range.  Steve shifted to the center and advanced toward the redoubt.  While I swung my troops swung round to make a colonial sandwich and hit the redoubt from multiple sides.

The fences go down as Steve and my troops advance on the redoubt along with Pete's grenadiers. 

The hard fought battle of the barn where Mark's rifles held up Pete's flanking maneuverer for 3 to four turns. 

Pete's grenadiers assault the redoubt while Steve and I bring ours forward to assault the redoubt.  Our guns have caused one unit to route and Mark is moving forward on the right.  Bill took the rebels from the fletches and moved forward to cover the barn and the colonist's right flank.  Note his unit in the lower left taking pot shots at the second British flanking battalion.

Pete finally chased the rifles out of the barn. Bill continues his efforts to stabilize the Yankee right.

Pete's grenadiers are down to one figure when Steve piles on.  My lights advance on the lower side of the redoubt. 

Steve's artillery kill the second gun (the one with two caps on it) while my lights clamber over the walls.  I think we may have not done this part correctly as I don't recall receiving fire from the artillery. 

Game's end with the colonials on their right gone, Pete's unit in retreat and the second holding the barn.  We have taken the redoubt.  Our game master declared this a British victory.  It being the first time the British had achieved this result without multiple assaults.

Our decision to burn Charleston and make a flank march proved to be very effective.  It forced the Yankee's to shift their troops and created opportunities for Mark and Steve to advance on our right and center. While Pete's grenadier's ended up killed to a man, it enabled Steve and I to get into the redoubt and take the hill.  A fun game, great terrain and well fought.
