EARLY INSPIRATION

 This is not exactly part of the Dog Wars Universe, but some of the inspiration for it. Many years ago, my gaming buddy Bernie used to run a great game using his Eureka Miniature Teddy Bears armies. Sadly, these figures are no longer available from Eureka. This game was from back in 2017 and was run using the Honours of War rules. 

Prussian Forces Making Their Way to Reinforce the Bridgehead they have Established. 


Austrian Fusiliers with Their Battalion Guns Intact Await the Prussian Assaults.  

Both Side Eye Each Other Up as More Prussians Cross the Bridge. 

A Full Length Shot of the Whole Battlefield. 

The Battle Commences and the Prussians are Already Suffering Casualties.  

Austrian Cuirassier Charge the Prussian Infantry Line. The Little Wheels You See are the Backend of the Hobby Horse They Ride.  

The Prussians Continue to Pour Reinforcements Across the River. The Cavalry Battle from the Last Picture can be Seen on the Right.  

The Austrians seem to be Content at Holding the Hill Line as the Prussians Mass Against Their Left Flank. 

The Prussians Pressing Forward on the Austrian Left Flank.
Popguns are a Popin and the Stuffing is a Flyin.  

The Assault as Seen from Behind the Prussian Line. Casualties Mount but the Assault Continues. 
Yes, the Bear Theme Continues even to the Dice. 

The Prussian Traffic Jam at the River. While Reinforcements Kept Coming the Single Point Made It Difficult for the Prussians to get them to the Action.

While the Prussians Took Their First Objective of the Tree Line, They were Unable to Drive the Austrians Off the Ridge. 
This was a battle I long ago thought I had lost with the catastrophic loss of my computer. When my archive program recovered these I felt it was a sign to share them.

  1. Superb, the Teddy bears always looked really good, it's really sad that they are not available. Super pictures, glad you shared them.

  2. Thank you for the comment. I was hesitant as it is off topic some. I am trying to figure out a way to post on my other gaming.
