TIME
PERIOD: Our
timeline is 1807-1814, Peninsula Wars in Spain and Portugal... somewhere near
Cindad Rodrigo...(As in Baron de Marbot's memoirs.) there were troops from all
over Europe in this region fighting for the Coalition or the French. There were
numerous guerilla civilian and militia troops and well as main line combatants.
"Valour is never forgotten only the forgotten battle". Battles,
gambling, duels and encampment.
WHAT: This is a chance to meet new friends and contacts for those
interested in celebrating this Napoleonic time period 1795-1815. There will be
4-5 skirmishes (in Napoleonic style), and music, camaraderie and dancing at
