Gang, I almost forgot about this question we had a few weeks ago, the one if you remember concering the passage on p 53 about artillery having to "retreat...
A question about command radius. At 12" it seems like almost no unit is ever not getting at least +2 for commanders (division and corps) unless those...
For the Spanish I used the Division rather than the Brigade as the maneuver unit (most are @ 9-12 stands anyway) With only a single Commander (Ceusta at that)...
Phil, I've toyed with this idea too. Maintain 12" for Corp, and upper echelon commanders, and reducing the radius for Divisional commanders perhaps say to 4"? ...
Going back to the discussion that went on about a week ago... The rallying artillery section (p39) says "A Silenced battery which moves at least half its...

What a great rule set! I came upon it by the good luck of chatting with Col. Gray while he was setting up a game at the last Fall In!, bought it at the dealer...

FWIW department. I'm not sure I'd call Revolutionary Artillery's not being able to move when Silenced a big advantage if one at all. I normally put on...
The 12 inch radius is designed to nearly guarantee an in-comand status for most historical divisions at the beginning of a game. Exceptions might be linear...
Hi, Or it a cordial ploy used by every nations artillery men to avoid bring hit by something very big and nasty. Cheers Jesper Slightly paranoid today. ... ...
