A PDF form is still a possibility. The drawback is that it cuts out retail sales. I've gotten attached to my UK and Australian shops. There is no hurry for a...

Mike, You mention looking for a Colinial set for larger battles. I'd strongly recommend "Savage Wars of Peace" by Mark Hayes and Tim Goodlett. As for the...
I stick to MOA. I'm too old, fat, and dense to learn another set of rules. I've forgotten SOI, WRG, DBA makes my skin crawl, and Tactica is a bit too...

I am new to MOA just wondering what is the average size for a pike unit under these rules, its a shock to the system that only 2 ranks of pike fight, I'm used...
Alex: Welcome! I usually make my pike units 6 stands. There's not a whole lot to be gained from making them bigger, unless the troops you have available are...
As an ex-DBM player I know the feeling Alex! I tend to stick to the theory with any unit type that you only field them in the number of ranks where you get...
