Thanks Al
David is this for Epic or Glory Hallelujah?
Ok guys … thoughts please and I was the French!!
twice different Russian infantry units in the redoubt were broken and removed due to supporting and/or potentially supporting units in combat outside being broken in combat
definitely changed the battle???
I just sort of struggle with line ,yet I acknowledge the firing or combat restrictions , I know BP says a line can bend etc but they were not covering acres if space????
Ok I see what you both are saying but if there’s a batter they’re then the infantry is in the rear line or column . If no battery is it like a building ? Yes if it’s enclosed perhaps but I’d there is an exposed rear to it . Now I’m gaming Shevadorino so it has a rear facing
Nat if i remember rightly weren’t there optional rules for fighting over bridges and fording as well as in woods in CoE?
doesn’t the artillery ignore skirmishers only apply to skirmishers outside of 12″ otherwise all modifiers ie -1 apply?/. p56
ok I see what you mean Al thanks for reply…it was just on p35 at quick read it mentions the word retreat(which covers all I suppose shaken/retire/break etc) and I now notice the important word there is “shaken ” can’t return at all
thanks guys
Agreed Al
Dave look at it on Aug5th and September 19 2019
On their Facebook page
Dave it was a couple of months ago they did a battle Munchausen ( did it twice)I believe it was called and used General figures on table at the start with several dummies too . Which moved a certain distance until they were with in a certain visibility range then deployed the relevant formations on table as they became known . They use 2 movement distances for infantry and cavalry Generals initially until they deploy after being observed or removed if dummies
I just liked the premise it takes away the usual I place on table to match what you have
Al, I’d be wary of ignoring buildings altogether as they were assaulted ,often taking up large resources and and effort/time in battles . I been in games where opponents totally avoided them meaning their inclusion on the table becomes somewhat irrelevant. Then think of say about Ligny /Waterloo, where villages or just buildings were seen as having to be held/taken -salient points or valuable ground. Just my thoughts after seeing opponents either march past or take a diversion away from such areas and it just looks as if the periods realities of battle and plans from both the attacker/defenders perspectives are being put aside

I’m in the same boat -did a preorder close to 5 mins from issue time but didn’t get a signed copy
