Hi all. Back from Bulgaria and trying to make some progress with getting my Austrians ready for combat. As I get (slowly) closer to completion, I have started...
Hi Jimbo, many thanks. The Magister Militum range caught my eye. Their infantry boxes contain a brigade of 4 LFS battalions if you stick with 12 figures, or 2...
Hi Bob, yes, these mixed divisions and brigades are very difficult to use well. I've only seen one instance, at our Austerlitz refight, and to be honest, the...
Thanks Zippee, that's very useful. Not having any 6mm or 10mm, I had no idea of base widths needed etc Cheers, Daz ... consistency of ... like due to ... ...
Thanks Daz. So, it's much as I thought. I was struck by the "Catch 22" nature of the thing. Either you have them detached and it will be very difficult to...
Hi Bob, I can't think of much to say abour Lederer off the top of my head. I'll have a look in my books to see if anything is there. Cheers, Daz ... enough ...
Hi all, please have a look at the new web site www.lefeusacre.co.uk I've redesigned it with the aid of some new software, and IMHO it looks rather nice. As...
Good job, looks very much better than it did. No load time issue from here Any chance we can get the older scenarios packaged into PDFs instead of just html...
What's with the new group page pic?? When I saw all the blue I thought it must be the Pompey team celebrating hanging on in the Premiership. But alas it's only...
... It looks quite nice and loaded quickly enough. A guru, am I? Does that mean I'm a phony who takes people's money? Perhaps I should get fitted for a turban....
Genetically engineered to reach across big wargames tables, that's me :-) Zippee ... From: On Behalf Of therugdoctor2003 Having met Zippee, the concept of him...
The excel s/s in the 6mm files section illustrates the base sizes I use. Essentially: 5mm per for infantry (10mm depth) 10mm per for cavalry (20mm depth) 15mm...
... I know that Old Glory 10mm infantry are cast in strips of 5 that take up 1 inch of front. Haven't actually seen any but that number is bantered around on...
Surely a brigade order doesn't have to be used to move ALL the units of a brigade...certainly not according to the example in the rulebook p32. "He now uses...
... I have a devil of a time figuring out what to do with my advanced guard division of Austrians. I have 3 light cavalry regiments, 3 battalions of Grenze and...
Hi Vince. Your comments tie in with what everyone else has said. I guess these formations were perhaps mainly designed for scouting duties and taking and...
Daz, your answer about changes of orders for detached Austrian mixed brigades raises another question I have been meaning to ask. Your answer implies that a if...
Hi Zippee, yes, I tend to allow reasonable flexibility over the positioning/usage of the brigadier. It's the closest the rules get to needing some Kriegsspiel...
Hi Bob, yes, option 3 is what I use. And I'm flexible as to how the Corps commander interprets them. For example, the CinC gives an "Attack" order to IV Corps....
Hi Daz, the overall new design looks good. Just one or two minor points: The formatting on the home page looks a bit screwed up. Titles wrap onto two lines. On...
Guys If you're playing 28mm, what are you doing for basing?? I have canons coming and I am working out what to do with them. I think the TFL should have a...
... I don't have 28mm but do have some 1/72 ACW. I suggest multiplying frontages and other measurements by 1.5. Rough figures: continental infantry are 8mm per...
I guess a significant question is whether it is permissible for a brigadier to attempt more than one brigade order? Take the example of the widely separated...
Hi Zippee. I'll be honest, I haven't found the brigade/regimental orders thing at all confusing (so far). My original question was really just to confirm that...
