Sorry, most of my questions are about basing. I am looking at changing to 6mm. How do people base for this scale. One of the attractions is seeing troops in...
I should think that this would be a wonderful opportunity to make some little diorama's out of one's wargaming bases. Why not place two ranks of infantry for...
Personally, I base 6 figures in one row, to show the proper proportions. After all, one stand is representing 360 men in 3 ranks so surely the frontage is 120...
... I use 8 figures and base 4 wide x 2 deep. I did consider basing some 2 wide x 4 deep, and I think it would look nice for some columnar doctrine armies, but...
Hi Ants, I base 9 10mm French figures on a base in three ranks - it looks great. The number of 6mm figures depends on the actual size of the figures and...
I base them in 9 infantry per base - 3 rows of 3 - and cavalry in 6 - usually 2 rows of three - using Baccus 6 mm - a bit crowded, but it gives a great look...
Hi, We use Adler but put them on the base sizes for the larger minis. Infantry is 12 men per base either in 3 ranks or in 2 (in which case the base is wider,...
Forgot to add: we also have Adler for Fire & Fury and those are based as per rules (3 or 4 inf per base) on bases half as wide and half as deep as the rules...
I use Adlers on 2/3rd sized bases, normal (for 15's) amount of figures. I also reduce the ground scale to 2/3rd, photo-reduced rulers. I have older H&R figures...
6-8 seems to be the rule so <grin> Average would be 7 <grin> Michael Brown mwsaber6@msn From: Subodai Bahadur Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 10:32 AM To:...
OK, here are the major powers, but just remember there are some exceptions: 1. France - 8 guns, except for horse artillery which is 6 2. Russia - 12 guns 3....
OK, serious now. Are there any writings as to WHY 6 guns seems to be standard? I do know that several of the 8 gun batteries were 6 guns and 2 howitzers. ...

Hello all Just to let you know I have all the French army now but it requires painting and basing for the AoE Ligny battle at my house, as soon as this is...
We're doing the game at my home on 31 May but it will be in 28mm. Came up with a method to see if I Corps shows up or not. Kept the Prussian IV and French VI...
"Maybe the next time we play the game we'll do a what if to see what would have happened if everything went right for the French on that day." Wellington takes...
Another interesting what if would be to have things go as they did on the 16th but, next day, Ney does his job properly and renews the attack on Wellington who...
I do a what if Ney did what he was supposed to do and Wellington had to dig him out of Quatre Bras at west coast gaming conventions. I've had some interesting...
I have read, but cannot remember where, an author that argued history was too hard on Ney. He theory was that while Ney made mistakes, if Grouchy had just...
Quickest Wavre game I ever played (a while ago using different rules)..Grouchy sent just enough into Wavre to keep III Corps busy, rolled over the small force...
