Played another game of M&T today and got my work in progress Blockhouse. The French conducted a raid on a Colonial Village. The village was defended by 3 Provincial Units an a Rangers Unit. They had to hold out against the French and Indian force until the Ranger and Indian relief units came back from their patrol.
The right side of the village took the brunt of the action and the Provincials found it hard to hold out despite putting up some good fights in hand to hand combat. In the end they were up against too much and had to fall back into a final stand in one of the cabins. The cabin ended up getting set on fire and all Provincials including the officers died.
The reserve units took most of the casualties off the French Units in the woods and took at gamble by crossing the open to attack a cabin held by some Indians. Unfortunate for them they were caught in the open the fire from the Canadian Milice Units wiped them out and effectively meant it was impossible for the British to defend the village.
The British fell back to the Blockhouse while French and Indians sacked all the buildings and destroyed all that they could. The French and Indians left the village with their scalps and loot and the British with left licking their wounds.
