ParticipantThanks for reply and help. Description on p.61 is very important for BP gameplay. In last game I’ve played like Nat suggest , and only charging unit completed the order with no support from firends…

ParticipantQuestion about brigade order: Can I issue brigade order to my 3 cavalry units, where one unit wants to charge enemy and other two want to move to the left flank and rear to support combat?

ParticipantAnother bad feeling for me is that mixed formation is ANOTHER type of formation, not the upgrade of any other formations… For example french attack column. When you use skirmish screen in front of attack column you lose +1 morale (because it’s basically not attack column formation any more, its mixed formation). So i 2nd edition playing very historical voliguers skirmish screen You receive ONLY -1 to hit by enemy, or some opctional sharpshooter rule (if you have AT supplement)… Its to weak for historically frequent use formation. For me this formation should has -1 to hit (for screen), sharpshooter rule, and +1 morale because 5/6 of all unit is still in attack column!!!!

ParticipantHi Peter,
I also use 2/3rd distance for my games. Basic movement rules are too quickly for me. I use Clash of the Eagles rules for reduced movement for line formations and -1 penalty command for firing units. Now games are less dynamic but for my 3-4 brigade per side fits ok.
Good point about marauders rule. But for instance hussars and cuirassiers had different movement nature, so maybe light cavalry ignore -1 to command roll for first 12″ (or 8″ for our scale) distance from commander, and receive -1 on 24″ (16″), -2 on 36″ (24″) and so on ??
Thanks for present very interesting Perry’s meeting engagement scenarios.

ParticipantA Clash of Eagles supplement includes lots of rule for Austrians

ParticipantOk, in first picture I can shoot but with -1 to hit rolls, so I would like to make my target in full front quarter. I think that I don’t understand proximity rule at all 🙂 . For me being 12″ within enemy unit I can ONLY make move as rulebook says ‘STRAIGHT’ forward or backward, and any pivots, changing formation etc. are not permited. Well, I was wrong, so variant A is fully correct.
Thanks Big AlJuly 12, 2019 at 11:04 pm #165068Marecki
ParticipantOk, here is another question. Which play is correct when I want shoot to blue unit? Variant A or B? Is proximity rule doesn’t allow me to do variant A ?

Participant1) Yes,
2) You need to buy separate bases,
3) Unfortunately, you cannot buy command figures separately (no one knows why;)). You can buy command pack prom Perrys if You want.July 10, 2019 at 4:25 pm #164860Marecki
ParticipantNext time I’ll take a revenge 🙂

ParticipantBig AL it was bold and bad (at the end) cavalery action on left wing. Enemy cuirassier unit was close to my objective, so I decided to take ‘follow my orders’ with my Scots Greys to make three moves. I was thinking that bonus attack and ‘gallop at everything’ rule will work against strong French unit. Unfortunately, my Scots made only three casualties, and French made six. Next I rolled ‘6’ to check if my commander is dead. Thats all :).

ParticipantHello,
At the beginning of game my brigade commander was eliminated. What can I do to command rest of the brigade? I nominate next commander with SR lower than previous? Is there any information in BP2 rulebook?-

ParticipantAnd what about when Mixed formation is charged. Skirmishing troops go back to the column and unit is count as attack column with 3+ morale save?
January 8, 2019 at 11:41 am #153002Marecki
ParticipantThanks for reply. So, if artillery fire at attack column with skirmish screen, it doesn’t get +1 to hit because its Mixed Formation not Attack Column? Am I correct?
January 7, 2019 at 11:12 pm #152972Marecki
ParticipantI’ve got another question. Maybe someone asked about it on old forum: attack column with skirmish screen has +1 to morale save, or mixed formation is separate formation at all?
