THE HONORED DEAD of THE BATTLE OF SAINT BERNARD

 In past I have kept lists and photographic records of the loses during games. As of late I had become lax at this but now I am back at it. Whenever a unit is routed in combat, I like to add a permanent remind by attaching a batch of red poppies to the base of the unit. If you are observant, you will have seen these in the battle reports. If instead you spot a purple batch, that is for a unit that has committed a great act of valor, or heroism. These are very few and I will leave you the reader to discover them. 

The Empire's Loses are Two Batteries of Artillery, Lord Pawling's Regiment (Cuirassier), The Onion City Militia, Lord Basset's Battalion of the Line, and Whine's Battalion of the Line. 


The UPC's Loses are Snarl's Battalion of the Line, Husky's Battalion of the Line, Converged Grenadiers, Woofington's Regiment (Cuirassier), Softpad's Regiment (Dragoons), and Snifferbutt's Regiment (Dragoons)
I do name all my General's and units. To save time and space I rarely use them in a report, but am considering expanding things if it clarifies description, or is warranted by some actions.

  1. Neat idea, I like the idea of a permanent reminder, especially the feats of valour.

  2. Seeing some of the units showing 3 or 4 red poppies reminds every one of the actions some of seen.
