Hi Talavera question. I uploaded some times ago a Scenario for Talavera. It is in the files section and uses some home-rules. The question of the Allied army...
On the assumption that you have the Talavera scenario from the original 1st edition I would simply cut off the map between Talavera and column 4. All of...

Hi all, Flags: For those of you that use flags, what type of paper works best? Also, for those 15mm players, do you replace the pole for the standard bearer? ...
Doug, I use either comercial flags or downloads printed on normal paper, both work fine. I dont bother replacing the poles in 15mm. I always have a drummer on...
Flags: I use ordinary copy paper for my flags, since the paper is thin enough to curl nicely and form. Drummers: Yes, I use them. I place one in each command...
I usually use regular bond paper from the copier/printer. I just use elmers glue to put the flag on...but make sure the pole is primed...the glue sticks...

Just wondering how many players here have played the 'Waterloo' Scenario? In your opinion...is it worth it as well? Just trying to get an idea on this...
Don't have the rule book handy right now but from memory.... The Prussian LC unit because it did not rout all units in the combat must bounce. The French...
... It is a flawed scenario but the battle is such that any scenario for it must be flawed. Accept the flaws and play it to give all participants a better...
HI all I have fought Waterloo a couple of times and it always goes way off what happened historically as everyone knows it so well and with the benefit of...
I've seen this situation, and here's what should happen - French infantry routs as you noted; the French cavalry bounces; the prussian cavalry does not bounce...
The scenario map is a disaster, and the command system favors the French immensely. I've played it several times, and unless the players are imcompetent, the...
As Waterloo is so well known we have to intorduce more uncertainties than usual into the battle. We might allow possibilities for 1 An earlier Prussian...
A number of the original scenarios appear to be based on old or flawed information or design. Much more information and better maps are available these days...
Gents... You really need to read the whole of the 'bounce' movement rule. 8.6.2.1 in NB1, 6.6.2.1 in NB2...also the recall rule. Sadly, the original bounce...

The PEL lists Wagram but does so in blocks (i.e., "Block 5"). Does this mean the game will continue being played through all six blocks of five hours each or...
... Hello, OK I did read the sections you mentioned, both V1 and V2 and came up with a different read of them than you did. From NB V2 Page 40, section...
Agreed. I too had always understood it to be that if ALL units were not routed/dispersed etc then cavalry would bounce but you are right. I expect that I was...
I don't understand why there wouldn't be a recall? The French cavalry bounces after the first round of combat leaving the Prussian Cavalry victorious to move...
It doesn't get to recall because it is not the case that "... all enemy units with which it is in combat are routed, dispersed, and/or eliminated..." (6.5.4.1)...
