The Battle of Vargemont Ridge is over with a surprisingly hard fought victory to the Allies.
Allied cavalry continued to probe the French line, looking for weaknesses:

The French found new determination and mounted attacks by their valiant infantry:

British, Hanoverian and Prussian infantry succeeded in pushing the French back but not quite off the ridge.

Units and brigades broke but the army of Prince Soubise wasstillin the fight when night fell.

The battle ended in a minor victory for Prince Ferdinand and the Marquis of Granby.

A really enjoyable two full days of gaming at an amazing venue. We've already been invited back for next year's EXPO.
