Last Wednesday evening I went over to Rick's place and Gary and I played a Command Colors Tricorne, Jacobite Rising game, the Battle of Killiecrankie. Rick was the umpire and we used his 28mm WoFun British and Jacobite figures. Command and Colors Tricorne is published by Compass Games. I have a copy of the original American Revolution game, courtesy of Rick, and have played it before. Jacobite Rising covers thirteen scenarios from Killiecrankie through to Culloden in 1746. Killiecrankie is a really tough scenario for the British and it felt very much like it was only a matter of time before they collapsed. Predictably the Jacobites won 6-1 victory banners with their entire centre in tact and unused.
