It was in a Miniature Wargames or Wargames Illustrated about five years ago I think. I haven't got that issue as I was looking for it myself a while back. They...
Nick I have a copy, it was entitled 'New List for Shako - Part 2' By Paul Kitcher - I think it was in Miniature Wargames. Unfortunately my copy has no...
Hi Nick, There were some lists done by a Paul Kitcher in a wargaming magazine. Generally i find them an interseting starting point but beware they were not ...
... I'm pretty certain it was Wargames Illustrated. I subscribe to Miniature Wargames so I'm sure it wasn't in there. A friend of mine was kind enough to ...
The lists appeared in Wargames Illustrated in 1998. Part 4 appeared in issue 131, August 1998 (the only issue I have to hand). I can't recall if the parts were...
The rules do not allow deployment of infantry on the flanks during the initial setup but may move into such areas after deployment.I have noticed that players...
This is an interesting suggestion but one that I would apply on a scenario
to scenario basis. There are too many scenario options that would not make
this rule...
Actually its the flank marches that present the most problem as there is no room to deploy when one arrives at the table and ends up among squares ... scenario...
Hi everyone, and in particular all those who ofered help on the Swedes. Thank you to you all for your help. I now have the list thanks to Geoff. Indeed thanks...
... not ... Thanks for sending this I really appreciate it. I agree that it does not look very balanced. But as you say it is a good starting point Nick...
From Page 8: "On their turn of arrival, Flank Marching units may charge enemy units within reach." Charge the squares with your Infantry. Hopefully your...
Thats how we've always played it. It works quite well to avoid "gamey" deployments. I had a flank march of 4 Inf and 1 Cav, hit 8 inf in the flank, opponent...
I'd be very interested in hearing from any group members who have used the SYW rules contained within SHAKO. I was surprised, upon reviewing the files, that...
Hi Hal:
I have used Shako for SYW and find that they work very well. They were, in
fact, originally developed with SYW in mind. While working on a revision...
Hi Guys: a while ago Terry and someone else had developed a Borodino scenario based
on Utitsa from FOG. Was that scenario written up and made available in its...
Chris, I assume I might be the "someone else". The scenario was developed because I wanted to play a specific scenario of the battle for the Fleches, and then...
Hi Tom: I've gone through the scenario and have a couple of questions. what scale and unit size/base sizes did you use. Could you check your description of...
Tom, a couple of questions and some thoughts. Where does Murat enter on turn 6? Might it not be better to have him arrive with one of the two French Cavalry...
... Sorry for any confusion. We brought Murat on F4 (between the two cav corps) but a turn ahead to allow him to choose whether to head for the Fleches. Do...
... what scale and unit size/base sizes did you use. Whoops! - my first reply here seems to have gone astray. We use 15mm. Basing type A. The map was based on...
Chris, The FOG Liebertwolkwitz Scenario indicates Russian Cavalry Division General Pahlen's CP is located on the north half of the hill, but the Division set...
Hi Terry: Pahlen can deploy anywhere on the hill (no further forward) and not beyond
his command radius. The deployment zone was omitted in the final print...
In a message dated 1/21/04 8:15:32 PM Pacific Standard Time, ... That was my first book on Borodino. I now have 25, three in Russian. Thanks for the memories....
