Just played a fairly large SYW game and a few questions came up regarding the rally phase seemed like there were several inconsistencies around who can rally...
Ed, In the first case where units took devastating losses during the fire phase but weren't able to rally during the rally phase - this is correct, the...
Happy New Year to all. When an officer becomes a casualty the system always offers a senior officer to replace him. We'd prefer to have a more junior officer...
Ed, Happy New Year to you and all the other members of the group! This is something I've considered worthy of an upgrade at some point in the future. You're...
Hi, I am new to the site and a recent convert to the art of computer aided miniature gaming. Only been playing it for about 2 years. I like this system and...
We are planning an 1870 siege of Paris game with Von Moltke this weekend in 25mm - Balloon and all. Looks to be a great game. I am refreshing my memory of...
Nigel, Or anyone else out there who may be able to help. I know this system was not designed for the period I am going to ask about. Though I believe the...
Mike, 1. Open formation is not a specific formation - the only reference I could find was to open line formation. Whenever there is a reference to an open...
Stephen, 1. Currently the system does not normally [it is variable] permit fire beyond the maximum visible range. The firing unit will range it's fire against...
Thanks Nigel. A few follow ups if I may. 1. Can units interpentrate open column the same as open lines? 2. Got it on the staff officers. 3. I am hoping to get...
Mike, 1. No units shouldn't be permitted to interpenetrate open columns - but hopefully there are adequate spaces between columns that units can flow around...
Nigel, Thank you for you insight on firing through a target into mist. Guess it would make sense if firing muskets as their bullet flight trajectory usually...
Stephen, You're correct about rifle fire through the mist - again this is something which will need to be addressed in a upgrade version. With regard to...
Nigel, As always your responses help and also confuse at the same time. The action I was trying to convey about the OO troops. Was that they would not be going...
Stephen, Sometimes the simplest things appear more complicated when attempting to explain them in writing - for which I apologize. You're correct, the light...
Viva Nigel P., Thank you matey all understood now. Until the next time anyhow. On behalf of his most gracious excellent'e, Antonio Lopez de San- tanna you may...
Nigel, when you get a moment, can you provide some insight into how the program handles army morale? I love the army morale system, but feel that using it in...
I have played C&G for a number of years but I am about to start playing in a new period... Marlborough39;s Wars. In this period Dragoons functioned both as ...
Hello all. I just posted some photos of an 1870 siege of Paris game our club did at my place this weekend using C&G Von Moltke edition. They are found in the...
Hello Nigel. I am on my second version of Von Moltke and I just noticed something about the skirmishing I was hoping you could explain. In the first version...
Hi Mike, I tried to look at the pics, but can't seem to get them to enlarge on my machine. Could be because I'm using a new Mac... or maybe you just uploaded...
Hi Nigel. I am hoping you can elaborate on the concepts below. In the post game status window there are two buttons to select from. One is territorial...
Andy, If you take a look at the pics in slideshow. Quite a few of them do enlarge. Though as you mention others appear to have been uploaded as thumbnails. ...
Finally getting around to giving Frank some input on this: "Second, for those of us who are convention GMs, I'd like to survey the group and get a sense of...
a) Whether you are a player or GM, which C&G period have you played (or GM'ed) and/or enjoyed the most, and why? 7 Years war, Napoleonic & Acw (variations for...

John, The system does account for horse-holders, so you should replace mounted for dismounted in a one to one ratio. Typically, one-quarter of a units strength...
Thanks Nigel, My question was probably not very clear. I was really asking about elements on the table (as well as men per se) and what the system does. I have...
