... Hi Chris, Here's a rough list from the last Advanced Shako. I may have forgotten some of the rules, but here is an outline. They come under three rough...
Thanks, Tom. Some of this list doesn't appear to be just AS but part of the basic rules (e.g., failed volley mod). This is interesting. Cheers, Chris...
Hi on my club YES we use: 7.3.1: Attacking Division compulsory movement 8.7: French formation changes and charges 11.2.4: Lancers Army Orders of Battle:...
Hi, Sorry I didn't explain my self well on the hasty square part. We do use it, but we don't use the -1 on Hasty Squares when in column formation. A change we...
A simple question about "recall" If a cavalry unit won its melee and don't perform a breakthrough, it can recall (in place or backwards) immidiately or as it's...
Jan, as far as I recall -haven't played for about 9 months-if cavalry win the breakthrough melee they must rally in place in the next move. After that move...
1. Cavalry who win a melee and do not take a Breakthrough move MUST Recall immediately. They do not have the option of waiting until the next turn. 11.4.1...
Hi I just started learning Shako by playing a solo game: A French infantry division (9 inf bat) against a British mixed div (6 inf bat + 2 cav rgt). No...
Maerk, 1. A Square can never move or shoot. As you say, if it is within the extended 6 inch flank lines of an enemy formed unit, it can not change formation...
Terry - I very much appreciate your competent answers and comments. ad 1) it looked like a combined arms tactique to me (and I'm proud I discovered it ;-)) ad...
IMO, the trick with the artillery is not to let the lure of firing canister cause you to move it into charge range of enemy cavalry. At 3-4 (or 3-3 or 3-2 if...
... part ... Hi Chris, And sorry - maybe I should have been more clear. We do use as much of the basic rules as possible (including the failed volley mod), ...
I have a question about flank lines. How do you use these as some of the rules seem a tad strange in the outcome they force. Would somebody be able to explain...
Take a look at the right hand diagram on page 18. As you can see, the 6" flank lines extend forward from and parallel to the right and left flank edge of a...
After an enforced break over Christmas, that has some how turned into months, I'm finaly back painting my new Austian army. It has been mentioned that Shako II...
This can await final confirmation from Chris but I am sure Arty will not change the base sizes or the unit sizes. The rules are already pretty flexible...
No changes to unit sizes or basing (which, as Terry mentions, is very flexible anyway). There will be MORE skirmishers in the game, however, based and...
... Does this even apply to the Spanish?!!! :-) I've got a bunch of extra Grandees that need something to do, otherwise I'll have to add an addittional...
Relatively please to note that. It'd be a devil of a job to try to recall which figures I'd used in what unit to get a roughly compatible extra stand!...
Where did you get your flags. I like your units in the photo's section man, I still play single rank Battalions. Think I might do some units up with 4 figs per...
... that with basing style A in the rulebook, I was having problems fitting 3 old glory or AB, Fantassin etc on a 1 1/8" frontage base. I was thinking of using...
Hi Roger The flags I use are from the Warflag site (AKA Napflags). You can download and print them free of charge. You can also donate to the site to keep it...
For some reason, I don't think this got out - anyway, this was my reply earlier . . . Mark Mark Case <mcasephd@...> wrote: Hi Roger The flags I use are...
For some reason, Yahoo mail isn't sending anything out to my knowledge. I responded to Roger's note three times, and yet it isn't here, so I figured that...
Mark, The lacquer bit. Is this enough to prevent a soak up at the edges if you try to darken a light edge? It's the one thing I haven't mastered efectively....
