As usual a thoroughly comprehensive and helpful reply.

The platoon vs rank firing note was especially interesting.

Many thanks

Chad

Iain Could you clarify something please? I thought the Danish and Prussian contingents at Blenheim joined Marlborough late in the campaign. Would they have been trained in platoon firing before or after they joined the army? Also I thought the Prussian contingent was largely the same that fought at ...

Looking forward to BLB2 even more so now that it will include painting guides.

When will the finished article be available?

I have increased my security, cleaned my computer, reset my Restore Point and changed my e-mail password so hopefully it will be prevented in future.

Have just started a 10mm Marlburian Game and I have a couple of questions. They may seem a little obvious, but I just wanted to clarify. Artillery Hits - I think we are playing this correctly, but would appreciate the nod. Scores to hit infantry, for example, are 6@short range, 8@medium and 9@long (...

Thanks. I assume that after re-aligning they would be treated as firing at a 'new' target regardless

Chad

Question I have been meaning to ask. Is field artillery allowed to be moved in the sense of re-aligning to bring a target back within it's field of fire and if so what are the restrictions as regards time taken and die rolls for casualties?

Thanks
