Hi Barry, Is that the August issue of WI? will look at that when I get it. Playing my second game on Sunday. At the moment we have 10 Battalions 17 Squadrons and 6 guns for the Allies, 9 Battalions 20 Squadrons and 5 guns for the French between the 4 of us. As one of us is about to do all the Prussi...

Hi Barry thanks for the replies. I know my post sounded a bit frustrated but I could not believe that no one had an opinion in any way. It seems that everyone waits for you to answer. If people have played and at least can point others in the right direction without waiting then why not post? The sh...

Helloooooooooooooooooooo anybody out there?

Or have I manage to commit some awlful mistake or does nobody actually play the rules?

If a unit is Shaken does it have to have a rally token in order to recover or can it do it automatically. Is there a priority to allocating order markers. Rallying from retreating and rout seems to require them as a must before anything else is done. But if you had units advancing as part of the gam...

Do people have any house rules for big games. Example being units allowed to move faster but count as disordered. This is because there did seem to be a lot of dressing the lines once units had reached a reasonable combat distance. This was even under fire. And do people substitute tokens for Brigad...

Oh just one thing I forgot to mention. The blue for the infantry is straight out of the can. It is the Army painter blue primer. Cut down on even more painting.

Thought I would put up the French in opposition to my Allies Coietquen http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll319/Darkman8117/DSCF0030.jpg Conde http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll319/Darkman8117/DSCF0031.jpg Nettencourt http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll319/Darkman8117/DSCF0032.jpg All together ...

Thanks for the reply Barry. We have a big game next week and I still have to do the building bases. I am tempted to allow one building to allow one Battalion. Obviously the base area would be the same as 2 Battalions. However what would be best for units firing. I imagine that only the first rank wo...

Well in the end I decided to base them like this. A bit of a more open formation and not as well ranked as a foot battalion.





I will base the French the same.

So no one fights in buildings/BUA then?

I am not asking for a ruling just peoples ideas of how they play.

Hi All the figures are from Front Ranks WSS range.
