Hi, I disagree I am assuming than the four batteries are not in a continuous column. I.e. they are preparing to unlimber 1) The French cavalry touches all...
1) Yes, the four limbered guns count. French 5+4 = 9 bases against 3 cosscks bases so a 200% advantage: +2 for French 2) The cosscks routs and the French take...

I don't know. While the rules (between NB1 and NB2) are different, the result would be the same. The problem is that the rules say that for recall to occur,...

Tell me if these statements are correct: Inf units or Cav units may not attach to other Inf units or Cav units, except when in March-Column. Gun units may not...
All of those are correct, with one caveat. I don't believe a continuous march column is 'technically' attached unit-to-unit for combat purposes. But that's a...

This situation is seemingly impossible because the cavalry unit is 4 inches wide and four artillery units are 6 inches wide. Three artillery units (4.5 inches...

I agree, the club I with played with, it was one routs all rout. I think that would simulate the terror of watching a force in front rout. However, David...
That's not quite what I'm thinkning here. If severl units are in march-column formation, i.e. in contact (attahced) end to end, and they are engaged by the...

Oh i'm not argueing....I agreed with you that they should rout. Thats the way we played it for years. The reasoning is sound but if you left the infantry apart...
Ok, but then why not allow react markers for Infantry units too? I thought the intent of a react marker was to represent the swiftness of cavalry that's been...
