Sorry if this is a daft question guys, if a unit is shaken do they take the -1 for morale for Depleted Command, or is it applied to any units checkin g morale that dont have any orders for that turn.
Has anyone got any suggestions for which Dixon figs to use for the mainstream Irish Jacobite foot units, normal infantry figs in uniform or maybe the rebel/militia figs.
I forgot to play the capturing rule, but I think most of the cavalry on the Allied side would have loste theirs along with a good chunk of the French cavalry.

Mike,
if you go to the Foundry web site you can download a set of rules for the crimea, I've not used them, I use Piquet just now, you get a good game but it can take a while to set the game up.
