Re: Sharp Practice 2nd edition and So Far From God supplement

Hi Pete, Yes you are correct, the “So Far from God” supplement was written for version 1 of Sharp Practice which included a Bonus Deck which was triggered by a player rolling more ones than sixes. This was replaced by the Random Events Tables in version 2. The “Grasp the Nettle” cards are a more col...

Re: Command Hierarchy

Hi Marc, As Ian said, using Command Flags simply increases the Command Initiatives available to the Level I Leader, it does not increase his Status or rank so control of the Formation is unaffected. Also note that a formation is commanded by the Leader who outranks any other attached leader. Being t...

Re: Charging units that charged?

Hi Phil, If you haven’t already done so can I recommend downloading the GDA FAQ/Errata from TFL’s Lard Island News blog where you will find the answer to your questions. Basically a non-phasing unit which is the target of a charge may not declare its own charge on the phasing chargers or any other u...

Re: Bad Reputation

Hi Jim,

There’s no way for a Character or Gang to recover from a Bad Reputation in the course of a game or campaign. It’s too short a time and people have long memories. All you can do is saddle up and move on to another town where no one knows who you are. :)

Re: A few Questions

Here’s my take on your questions: 1) No units cannot voluntarily leave the table during a game. If you want to avoid a damaged unit routing and triggering a BTH roll you will need to find somewhere in cover to hide out of line of sight of the enemy. Units will only withdraw via a Jump Off Point usin...

Re: What to do with wallahs?

Since they can never operate in Formations I think Wallahs are best portrayed as a disorganised mob rather than a formed unit. So I’d go with 3 ranks and preferably on an irregular sabot tray such as those sold by Warbases in their Dux Brit/Zombie range. https://warbases.co.uk/product/dux-britzombie...

Re: Bayonets

In terms of the effect the Native Lance option is the equivalent to using a Bowie Knife in a brawl. (P59) So you would be treating the bayonet effectively as a Bowie Knife with a better hit chance. Not sure it warrants that.

Re: Experiences with WaC

Hi Snowy, Glad to hear you are enjoying the game. Not sure I fully understand your final comment. You don’t need a roll on the Events Table to recover dice from the Shock Pool during a game. You can recover dice from the Shock Pool during a Character’s activation by using an Aces High (6) dice. See ...
