Hi Barry, no I don't seem to have a verison with how to capture flags, the same with an earlier post about wounding or Killing a brigade commander or C-in-C. I figured just point a artillery gun at an officer and hope for the best :) After all didn't Marlborough almost get hit at Blenheim by the same means.

King William certainly got hit (or was it a near miss?) at the Boyne when he was fannying about/recconnoitring before the battle.

Good example Adam.

Villars was wounded at Malplaquet, not sure if it was by cannon fire or small arms.

Adam, I think 'Fannying about' is pretty close to the mark.. he never seemed to be doing much else on the field :wink: (any comments Angus??) :shock:
