All,
I searched through this section looking at all entries for 'skirmishers' but didn't find any discussion for my question that follows.
Does a French (or any other nation that organizes the same way) battalion that has split off its Voltigeur company into a combined elite battalion/unit still have the inherent skirmish capabilities available to it? Using the 6 company organization let's say that the two elite companies have been split off from the parent battalion. Do the remaining 4 companies still have skirmish capability, of course based on the number of figures left over?
