The situation at the end of turn 7. |
A frustrating turn for both sides but with luck Yule will arrive at Ladysmith next turn to bolster the garrison.
Could the Boers be wrong-footed here?
ReplyDeleteLadysmith is there for the taking!
Fortunately the Boers seem reluctant to take advantage of the situation at Ladysmith!
DeleteOh wow, De Wet's roll was fortunate indeed for the British! Things seem to be going right for her Majesty's troops! Cross your fingers Ian, and hope for this good luck to continue!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope so Brad!
