The Royal Dutch Navy for VaS….

1)  note 1 shouldnt be there – its a version of the Corp cavalry brigade left in by bad proof reading
2) note 2 should say half of the brigades in the divison should be line light

This comes from Clash of Eagles pp.96-7. The formation deploys half the bases in skirmish order rather than a third, and each base seems to get a shot, which seems a bit excessive given half the unit can’t fire.

See if you can get a copy of firefight (Academey of Street Fighting – Bolt Action:firefight on the Warlord store)- which is the half a dozen models aside version of Bolt Action.

v1.3 of the wardroom cheat sheet…. pretty much all you need to help you play (I feel)

Yes the formatting could be better, but oh well.

Pre-orders are normally about 3 months
