Use of Cards to dictate play
in our game yesterday, we used cards to run the game. This was the La Hermandad scenario where you have up to six French brigades taking on four British/allied. We had a card per brigade with two end of turn cards, and when the second one was drawn, the turn ended. We rolled for ADCs as normal, but ...

On Table Reserves
Evening all, we played one of the Vitoria scenarios, and whilst I was thoroughly trounced, we had a question regarding on table reserves. What is the benefit to the player of them? They dont appear to move faster than any other brigade, even if you use the Battle March rule (pg 98) which can apply t...

Re: French Dromedaire cavalry ?
Might have to go back to the old WRG ancients rules
I can’t imagine the Dromedary unit would have been overly proficient camel riders and would have been at a disadvantage compared to cavalry. They weren’t designed to fight as a mounted unit. I would have them as -2 against cavalry.

Re: Just starting out questions
Kev, for pure LI battalions, I usually do half the battalion in formed order, then the other half in skirmish order on the same size bases but fewer figs. An example might be best. I have just done the 71st LI for the Peninsular, so normal 10 company British battalion. As as LI battalion I want to h...

Re: new to GDA
And yes on Vets for most of those. You might even make some of those Elite - 95th and 52nd. I wouldn’t make highland regts veteran by default. I think you start with rating everyone line and then make a case for moving the rating up or down accordingly.
