AWI diorama

[Benno]

Hi guys,

Yesterday I was cleaning up my room and I dug up a box full of varios 15mm AWI figures I bought not so long ago. I also have a large wooden board... and now I'm thinking of building a 'small' AWI diorama. I have infantry and cavalry figures, no artillery.

My question is, does anybody know a nice AWI battle (or a part from a battle) I could choose?

Benno,
depends on many things, first, should it be a big battle or a small one. I learn for myself that the small ones are usually the more interesting ones for a diorama. Another question is perhaps "who should be the winner" , but far more important what units do you want to display, and how realistic will you do it. For example there are many "battles" fought in the woods, so you will see not much of your little friends if you do it right .
For me cowpens will surely be a very good choice if not number 1!

Also Guilford Courthouse (strongly wooded)

and Camden

are nice ones.
If you need numbers for one of the above mentioned fights look for the free wargame rules, there are some that gives good BO´s. or ask, perhaps i have some BO´s, depending on your choice.
