    Quick question: when you have a unit in light infantry mixed formation, or rifle mixed formation, how many firing dice do they get? One per skirmish stand out front, or one total?
    Thanks!

    One. It is clearly stated in the rulebook under the heading of Mixed Formations.

    Big Al is correct with respect to the basic rules contained in the Blackpowder (BP) rulebook. But in the supplement Clash of Eagles (COE) the author introduces a new “light infantry” mixed formation, where half the unit can go into skirmish formation and each “skirmish” stand gets to fire 1 dice.

    If you are playing Napoleonics, I highly recommend that you use the supplements especially the COE supplement.
