Yes, the battalion mass was indeed just a column of companies. I have
omitted the AUstrian column rules in Shako I from Shako II and added the
rules for...
I increasingly think not, but we need to throw the AUstrians a bone somehow - Chris Make the Grenzers better then 2nd rate line and that goes for the jagers...

Hi all! A group of my friends and I played our first game of Shako last week and we rather enjoyed it. And after the game we all sat around and talked about...
Hi Chris, This decision regarding columns seems to make sense. Charles' changes would be reflected well by this rule. From what I understand he was seeking to...

I am new to Shako and am looking for Shako players in the Boston/Southeastern Massachuesetts area. Does anyone know of any players? PHIL ...
No they're not...when used as light infantry, but Austrian commanders used them all to often as line infantry, in which fighting tactics they were less used...
I'd like to ask one question, for such debates as the one on large batallion tend to show a kind of blured approach about the things Shako is supposed to...
Hi Steve, Concerning unit size, common use is exactly what you thing: 3 stand infantry and 2 stand Cavalry, but you can use whatever you like as long as you...
To Steve, Hello. Some ideas below: 1. Are all units either 3 stands (for infantry) and 2 stands (cav)? Yes. Our group also experimented with 6 infantry...
A couple of small rules matters that puzzled us this weekend. Can a staggered unit rally within an opposing unit's flank lines if it is screened by friendly...

Dear Terry, Cavalry situation in Neil's post. This is what I like about this site-how different people interpret the rules. In all my years of playing Shako it...
I have 3 french battalions in l'ordre mixte, so 2 flanking batt in column, middle batt in line. They are attacked by british line who hits the batt in line...
Yes, both French battalions fight, each rolling a die and the French player then picking which modified die roll (the highest) to use in the melee. The French...
Sorry for the clumsy nature of the reply, but my internet skills are limited. Perhaps the easiest thing to do is a google search using "shako", "conliffe" and...
We playtested d10, it gave more factors, but became more demanding to remember all the factors. Slowed the game down, and lost teh beauty of the game. dave...
It looks like one of our club members is going to get into 28mm Napoleonics & wants to start out doing an Ottoman army(!?!?!). To support him, another member ...
As far as I am concerned elite minatures are the best NApoleonics around. They continue the Connoisseur tradition of style but are very nicely
detailed and...
I think you "spolied for choice", as the British like to say. You have Foundry and Perry Miniatures, to start with. Elite was mentioned. A further list to...
Hiyas all, I was wondering if anyone had any 15mm russians they no longer wanted or know of someone who has some for sale? They are rarer than hens teeth to...
Hello all, Re: Divisional movement - a question. In the advanced rules, you roll a die for each division to see in which order each division moves. Otherwise...
We find rolling for divisions and moving them "in order" speeds up games with several players because we normally have three players moving divisions at the...
We use cards withthe Divisions written on them, we shuffle them each turn and draw them from a pile and you move as your Division is drwan. This allows upto...
