Hi, i uploaded some photos of our Shako II game in 15mm from the Crisis Antwerp 2009 show. There in Alde Garde 2 file. On our website (www.aldegarde.nl) there...
I haven't played a Napoleonic game for 45 years - and I didn't like it :-) Now however I've looked at the Austrian and French uniforms and I've thought - this...
In Shako it doesn't technically matter how many figures you have. It's the base stands that count, not the number of figures. Â You put as many figures (or as...
Just to add to John's comments, I would be inclined to find someone who has armies already for Napoleonics and get them to have a go with Shako II. Their...
Is this a question or a way to sneak an ad for painted minis? To: shako@yahoogroups.com From: donnieitaly@... Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2009 13:32:59 +0000 ...
If it was an ad, it doesn't matter. The link doesn't work. John ... From: Tom Breza <TomBreza@...> Subject: RE: [shako] Newbie needs advice please To:...
I'm painting 1804-1807 French infantry from Victrix. They have those old style floppy hats like Napoleon wore, not Shakos. What are those called, by the way?...
... no such opportunity in my area :-( ... See this is what I don't understand. In the ACW a Brigade had about three or four regiments. I'm not sure how...
No worries.  I didn't think you were trying to pull a fast one. Feel free to send me the link on my own email, in fact. I'm curious. In the meantime, I hope...
First of all thanks for the advice off site, but I'll continue this here as there may be other newbies. So I need maybe 18 battalions per side, but then I need...
I suggest 1 battery per division and perhaps an extra corps battery (army gun). Unless it is an army gun, each battery is assigned to a division and must move...
The organiser of our refight of the battle of leipzig this weekend is having trouble posting on the group. He would welcome any suggestions on the treatment of...
Is he depressed because he can't post to the group? My mom has had good luck with valium. :-) It really depends on how rough the ground in the depression is....
Hi Guys I have that itch to play Napoleonics again .... I joined this list to see if Shako was now the one for me. I know searching for the right set of...
Hello all, Does anyone know if the British campaign book is close to completion? I had read a thread a while ago that said that it may be in the works and...
Thank you, Steve. I had expected that compatible armies might work. I now know there are four basing schemes but I still don't know what they are. Please tell...
... I don't know, because I don't have the rules in front of me, but being US rules they use imperial units, not metric. As I recall, two of the schemes...
Hi noticed at least three different threads with people looking to find other players today. So I'd just like to point out we have a data base to register your...
I'll probably crack it by tomorrow but I can't figure out what musket ranges are either in 25mm or the smaller (obviously duh,) 15mm. Shako cold be played in...
Ok, 6 inches down to 4 inches for 15mm. Why didn't they just use pointed sticks? I can't see any advantage to being in column when attacking. I thought that...
But it matters. you can muster 2 or 3 units in column against one line. This is the all meaning of using columns to attack in reality too: To concentrate more...
So I did miss the point thanks. It's interesting. (Funnily enough it also works for a silly set of rules for colonials!) How did the French ever get troop into...
