Battle of Krasnik - Poland 23 August 1914

After having actually got out my paint brush and painted up quite a few of my Peter Pig WW1 Eastern Front figures I decided it was high time to get them to the table.

The scenario was based around the early stages of the Battle of Krasnik with two divisions of Austro-Hungarians facing a division of Russians in defence.  It was based on one from Summer Harvest by Shawn Taylor for Great War Spearhead but I converted it to use Battles with Brusilov.

Here are a few photos from the game (apologies for the quality, I only had my phone camera with me):






In the end the Austro-Hungarians advancing through the forest got seriously bogged down and the whole attack stalled leading to a Russian victory.
