"A bit harsh calling Barry and Alan novices"


I don't think anyone in their 51st year could be a novice at anything

OMG :shock: whats this cavalry breaking Squares...don't tell the French guy this or we'll never hear the end of it...again!!!

I don't think either of them were broken in combat? I was away on the other flank facing up to lots of French Guard so wasn't sure what was happening 12 feet away but I think both units were Recruits and had wavered as the Russian cavalry charged, had pathetic results with their shooting then fled on their Fight or Flight tests and were promptly cut down.
Cheers

That's very true Dave, and needless to say when the cavalry hit the Guard Square they promptly got bounced back home, but I wanted to make Auld Jim nervous as his troops tend to spend a lot of time in square!!! :wink: :lol: :lol: :wink:
