... SNIP ... I am now regarding the ground scale for MOA to be 1 inch represents 20 yards for 15mm scale, or to get a rounder number for 25mm scale, it could...
Well, a lot of great input and ideas, some confusion, probably to be expected with the length and some of the "wandering" (guilty myself). I want to try and...
I'm in agreement with Bill's assessment of where we are and don't have anything to add. I hadn't read Bill's link before I sent out my last post. I have...
By the way, after you get done picking through all of the technical data on Dr. Picouet's "Tercio" site, he does have an additional site on famous battles of...
I'm glad "it" worked well, but I'm a bit confused about what "it" is. I've sent several things to gamers recently. Can you tell me what it says on the top of...

... Hi Steve: While not Gush, I did convert the DBR Polish List into MOA and put it into an excel spreadsheet. You can find it in the Files section under Army...
Sorry for the delay in responding Steve, She Who Must Be Obeyed has been on "vacation" this week and the Honey-do's are about to kill me. Short answer: Yes,...
Good stuff. I've added my comments in line ... MIKE'S COMMENT 2-stand units of light cavalry can be very effective. They are highly manouverable and can...
Thanks for the feedback Mike. I was concerned about the 3/6 unit conventions that seems so prevalent. Personally, I have no problem with smaller units, I just...

I'm considering doing the classic smak-down of the Teutoborger Wald after reading a novelette while in the hospital last week. I'm thinking of a 16x6 or 24x6...
