Turn 90 Degree or Wheel

Jim why don't we just wait for Barry to answer the question instead of carrying on this debate. For me I think what you did was a illegal manouver and you misunderstood the wording slightly.Yes you can turn 90 degrees, but not from line to line, only line to column of march or vice versa. I don't th...

Crossing Linear Obstacles

Hi Barry, Sorry to bother you with this again, but unfortunatly simple logic hasn't prevailed and questions were asked again. Can you cross a linear obstacle e.g. wall in march column and could you charge across also. I would say no to both, but I've got to ask for the others. I would also think you...

Crossing Linear Obstacles

Hi Barry, My turn to ask a question, Jim's taken time out to lick his wound's after another Williamite victory today :lol: One thing that did slow the game down and had us having a big debate about how infantry crossed linear obstacles which in this case was a stone wall.In the rules on Page 16 at t...

Hi me again,

O.K. I've looked for the GMB website, but have not found it and the traders who do stock them only have them in 25mm.
Could someone post me the upto date link of where I might find these.

Thank you for your help........Ray.
