28mm Basing for French Line Horse Artillery: 1812

Can someone please give the R2E recommended base size for a 28mm French Line Horse Artillery section of 1 gun model and 4 gunners? Thanks!

Hi,

Welcome to the forum. Ask and someone will answer. In this case I am the One .

RtE recommends 60mm wide and 80-100mm in depth. About 200mm behind the guns the space should be filled with limbers, caissons or similiar.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Gunter: Does Horse Artillery occupy the same WIDTH in R2E as Foot Artillery?

[Friedrich August I.]

That would be the same. But if you are going for basing only the gunner and putting the guns without a base on the table you can use the recommended basesize as a hint how wide the battery should be.

Hope that helps
