Take the Blockhouse Turns 4 and 5

I was able to complete turns four and five of my Sharp Practice game. The action is really picking up. The British and their allies have been rolling quite well for their movement, so they are in a better position at this point. However, the Americans are rolling better on their volleys, so that has evened things out considerably.
The Americans continue to advance to support the blockhouse, but they are moving at a painfully slow rate.

The state line groups fired an effective volley at the British grenadiers, wounding Lieutenant Harvey.

The grenadiers have paid a price for being the first unit in range of the blockhouse.

The Hessians cross the fence into the field.

Colonel Slaughter's regulars are now in striking distance.

The American left flank has deployed to take on Black Feather's Indian groups.
