Just to clarify, due to some confusion about rule interpretation and house rules our group had with NB we decided to play with strict rule interpretations when...
I have no idea what NB2 says. I mostlikely will never buy it (unless a cheap used copy). I just reread the rule book (NB) from cover to cover. A general is not...
Hi guys, I haven't had a chance to read the rules since the discussion began, but I seem to recall reading that generals do not count as units regarding...
Hello All, I'll be in the Kansas City, Missouri area the 10th - 13th. Do you have any great Napoleonic tips for me in this area? Thanks. Happy Wargaming, ...
Hi Jeff, If you find it let me know. The only thing I can find is 1.1.3.2 that defines "Generals" as units (not combat units), 8.1.3.2 that states that at the...
I dont remember the reference but I also remember that generals do not block fire upon enemy units either. I'll doublecheck my rule set this weekend. Jeff ... ...
My last comment on this subject. hurray! :) This is one reason I dislike lawyers (as a whole) and "even game" mentality (no offense). There is no room for...

My wife brought me a DVD she thought I might like, and I did! "Monsieur N." is the title. It's a French production about the Emperor's life on St. Helena. And...
Hi I am trying to refight the battle of Fuentes de Onoro of the Penisular War (1811) between Wellington's Anglo-Portuguese army and Massena's Army of Portugal....
Hello Rafael, Richard Brooks has a Fuentes scenario at http://www.fortunecity.com/underworld/fifa/47/fuentes.html and I note that he includes all the artillery...
Paul Thank you for the link. My sources indicate 38 french guns (6 are from one Guard horse battery from Bessieres) so the other 32 could be assigned to 4 foot...
Go generic. French horse batteries with 6 guns (6lb guns), foot batteries with 8 guns (12lb, 8lb, and 6lb), so you have 1 horse and 4 foot. British with 6 guns...
Rafael, I'm assuming the the "problem" you refer to is how to recreate the possibility of those artillery duels in your game, while observing the rules'...
This is a very interesting issue. First you should note that the original scenarios from AH don't stick strictly to that rule of only horse batteries and...
Hello Alfonso, I like the look of your rule, and I'll definitely be giving it a try. Your approach is also similar to that of Republique, where fire is by ...

I thanks all your sugerences. I.M.H.O. the best one, for battles of small or medium size such as Fuentes de Onoro pr Albuera, is to include all divisional...
Paul There is a question about your command and control tules that I don't understand. In the RESERVE COMMAND CONTROL CHECK, the C-i-C must to pass a check to...
Rafael, Thanks for pointing that out. I had intended for the specific general modifier to apply to reserve movement only if the general had passed his command...
