A few players in our group learned that the hard way too, at least they can find comfort in knowing that it can happen to the best! ;)

Good to know that this is settled, I think it will work just fine!

I also agree with Joe (and everyone else it seems), squadrons are really vulnerable and can only really be used "once", then they are spent. Giving them a bit more staying power or perhaps broadening the "all or nothing" rule might be a good idea to make cavalry stronger.

I think this is a good idea, perhaps not for the basic rules but definitely for an optional rules section. I think you could skip the morale test for advancing and just use it for the firing, this way units that are not as trained might give away their "first fire bonus" a little too quick. As for t...

It only takes 1 hour from Falkenberg to Gothenburg... I actually live in Stockholm nowadays, so it's a few extra kilometres! ;) What prussians do you hav...
