The view is from the North looking over the Main Plaza to left, and Military Plaza on the right. Two groups of Texicans seen to the right side with the various Mexican companies manning the barricades and rooftops...
This is from the quiet eastern edge of de Bexar with Mexican cavalry, artillery and infantry all pictured. The Texicans are attacking from the NW, top right of photo...
Turning now to the view from the south with two dismounted Presidio companies shown at bottom...
Finally, the view from the West, NW, where the Texicans are making their move. Two units of the New Orleans Greys are nearing the buildings at left, while the rest of the Texicans (some three more units) are on the left edge...
After several volleys have chased off two Mexican cos, the New Orleans Greys are preparing to assault the NW buildings...
A section of Mexican artillery has moved up to the northern barricade as the company that had originally held this line had retired...
Taking an opposite view as the previous photo, shows two Mexican cos which had been driven from the barricade and rooftops while a third company on right has been trying to move up in support. Unfortunately for the last two turns, the company has failed its command roll!
to be continued...Mexican reserves beginning to move towards the west...
The New Orleans Greys have taken the NW houses while the Mexican Co tries to unpin. The Mexican Co to the left has taken casualties, but continues to hold...
To the south of the Greys, Texican infantry and artillery have cleared a barricade...
To the north, even with casualties suffered, the Mexican Co here deals out three hits on the Texican Co, and it fails twice to unpin (The red caps each reflect a pin; units may only try to rally at that stage!)...
The Mexicans that were forced from the NW houses (center of photo) regroups, but finds themselves exposed to the Greys above. Initiative will be critical here!
The Mexicans do get the first card (initiative) but the pinned company fails and gains yet another pin after losing to the Texican fire from the Greys above! The Mexican Co (center) does pass its orders test and moves closer in order to fir upon the Greys (max 12")
After suffering three (!) casualties from the Mexicans atop the wall, (but succeeding in passing the Pin test of 10!) the Texicans here move to cover afforded by the outlying buildings...
With the Mexicans wining the race to man the barricades, this Texican Co takes cover. Getting caught in the open could be devastating...
Dusk is now quickly falling (turn 11 of 12). To be continued....
