So I’m taking that this is Epic and not 28mm…

During the AWI / American Rev. The British army tended to pull their Grenadier Companies out of the battalions and form pure (combined) grenadier battalions (same as they did with the light companies).

So I’d go with padding to make the grenadiers a full 2 bases.

Hello all, I’m starting to paint my foot guards for the new game and noticed that the grenadiers in the picture in the webstore have a strip of regulars behind the grenadiers. Was this a common practice for the guards and/or other regiments or was this just a way to stretch the grenadiers to two stands or am I worrying about nothing?

highlighted the word either – this means the first time you fire a broadside it gets the bonus the second broadside (position) to fire wont get it

Good Afternoon. I have a query about the wording for initial broadside(s). Does one get one (1) or two (2) broadside bonus?

Ah, I see that now in my BPv1 Rule Book. I’ll keep it as a house rule. Thank you for your reply.

Hi George,

GH was released during the 1st edition of Black Powder. Back then the rulebook gave skirmishers a +1 to hit modifier across the board, so the rule in GH was a varient of that. BP2 does not give skirmishers a +1 modifier to hit, making the GH rule redundant. Of course if you and you opponent wish to include the GH rule in your games you…[Read more]

Interesting, I have been updating the Black Powder Quick Reference chart with Glory Hallelujah American Civil War supplemental rules.

Yes it does…

The only way to give a disordered unit any order is to make the units Elite Roll… it to show that if the rank & file are running round like headless chickens it doesnt matter what you shout they aint listening!
George started the topic Charge and Leader Questions in the forum Black Powder 6 months ago

Hello again,

So I have a charge questions about charging:

1. A unit is given an order to charge an enemy that it is also close enough to shoot. The unit moves, survives closing fire, and moves into contact during the enemy. The melee is resolved during the hand-to-hand phase.

a. I take it the charging unit cannot shoot before charging as it is…[Read more]

Thanks to Nate and Ben for replying to my earlier questions.

Here is another that came up.

A disorganized unit cannot receive orders. Does this include the rally order?
