Too Fat Lardies

J,

It's instead of a volley - the 4/5/6 CD are there to reflect an almost toe to toe close range volley!

J,

Or you could use:

10 - 12 = 2 bases
12 - 16 = 3 bases
16 - 20 = 4 bases
20 - 24 = 5 bases
24 - 30 = 6 bases
30 - 36 = 7 bases
36 - 40 = 8 bases.

I'm sure they'll all work out.

De-P, That's a good tactic! And yes, not one I'd considered either. Technically, as none of your brigade units have dispersed the brigade is not demoralised. And, historically, the French did do this when their battalions were at such a state that they could no longer form a solid close order format...

Thanks JJ!

D, On p38, Conducting the Charge part 7. “If the chargers can reach the 5cm [3"] point, complete the charge, but all units will be unformed.” Does “complete the charge” mean that you go through the whole phase of fire and charge combat and associated results regardless of the fact you couldn’t reach...

K,

Let us know how you fair as the Rebels!

BTW - Beautifully pianted troops!

DB

That's right - the delay is my fault - a fuller product is required!

I'm also getting distracted by WW2 rules design!

However, I have a pile of Waterloo campaign books on my desk so ploughing on this week!

J,

It just marks the maximum forward deployment the Confederates may take up, (no fence).

DB

Ouch!

That's right - any unit that carried out any action in the Charge phase, (however slight) can perform no further actions (firing. move, etc) for the rest of the turn.
