base size should not matter at all Turrabear with Republic to Empire. Make them lkook exactly as you want to.

Chaps, the reduction in movement for the 'realignment' prevents any need to measure a 'wheel'. You won't need the template for this. The template is meant for use in ordinary wheeling no a pre-charge realignment which is pretty much down to chance. A realignment during a charge simply allows you to ...

Another copy is on the way to Wien, just hope the Turks are not on their way back too!

Wheeling is at half rate for close order infantry in line so, infantry (except Swedes, loose order and tribal infantry) can only wheel two inches. Horse can wheel 4 inches in line or 8 inches in column of march. Charging cavalry which realign by wheeling do not do it the way you have described. See ...

superb Bryce!

The rules allow for a certain degree of 'localization' . So, no blanket GA are Bullet and French are Blade in the NYW and a reversal in the WSS. More of - the majority of each side follows the accepted pattern and an agreed proportion of each can be the opposite ie: NYW French mainly Blade but an ag...

Hello Joe, the Imperialist special rules supersedes the disorder definition in the rules. Yes the rule applies if they have lost the first round of combat - in fact, this is the very circumstance it was created for. Second situation is exactly as you fought it. One casualty is always taken by each s...

It depends what you mean by period - century?

Were we separated at birth.. for your sake, I hope not!

I am just working on the Army Builder guides for the new GNW/Eastern Wars supplement to Beneath the Lily Banners 3rd Edition. The book is being laid out now. My suggestion for a starter army for the Imperialists would be: 4- 6 infantry battalions (pikes if pre 1685, none if later) - these could be '...

Sorry I missed this Bryce. Happy Birthday - I am about 2 months behind in my life currently

Done good there Adam! Nothing to be disappointed in - I think your work is very nice indeed!

Sorry to be a bit late to this Gentlemen, the joys of a mobile career. The interpretations offered by Joe and Adam are good for me although I may add some perspective for consideration - Horse in retreat are not cohesive and pretty much trying to get away from whatever upset them as quickly as possi...

Thanks Joe, must have happened when we changed the page count or moved a chapter in the lay out!

Two man teams are fallible!
