OK. I can believe that. In the single unit actions it says you have to pay for the units to charge. Second situation. Previous turn. Same group but not in charge reach. Under advance orders. I paid 3MPs to maintain their advance orders. I want to move all three battalions forward. Do I have to pay f...

I'm back. I have the rules in front of me now also. I have a couple of situations and I'll go through them one at a time. A brigade of 3 battalions in attack column. Two battalions are in charge reach of enemy infantry and it's my go. The brigade is seasoned with advance orders. I switch the brigade...

And the figures are now up with photos on the FR website.

there is a teaser pic up on the front rank front page this morning.

I'll go back through it. I didn't have trouble to figure out how much single unit actions cost, I just didn't know when to pay for them or not, based on the brigade orders.

Footslogger, If it's any consolation, I had the exact same questions when I first started reading the rules, especially the MUST and MAY parts since it does state in the rules that actions in column two are covered by the Manoeuvre Points spent in brigade orders. It took quite a bit of patience on ...

Thanks, yes, it helps a little. Let me ask this. Is it correct to say: any action in the "MUST" column describing a brigade order is done without any additonal MPs and any action in the "MAY" column is done only with additional MPs for single unit actions? I almost believe that, except the REFORM o...

Thanks, but it doesn't really help. I can't figure out from the rules when a battalion's action costs additional MPs as a single unit action, or not because that action is covered by the brigade MPs.

OK, I've read through the rules a couple of times, and the orders section a couple more times and have some questions. 1) Which single unit actions do you pay for? and when? I'm reading through the example on page 50 it looks like the battalions all pay one MP to switch from their formation into col...

Hello All Just to confirm that the current research project on the Dutch Army will be along the same lines as Roberts previous works (like the French) i.e structure, regimental history, uniforms and flags including colour plates. During this time I have been constructing a Regimental database using...

Hello All The post was not meant to be a critic of the painting, which I thought was excellent but just a provision on information for future use. I am currently researching the Dutch Army (1685-1715) with Robert Hall for publication at the end of this year or early next and felt it would be helpfu...

I have a couple of spanish dragoon regiments in green coats. One of them is done and I'll be painting the other soon.

These are way bigger than the dixon/foundry stuff.

More generals better.
