Re: All or Nothing Charge

Hi Barry,
I believe your design was to use it as a rare last ditch"we need to win this fight", but it turned into everyday use. When teaching the rules I don't even cover it as an option.

Re: All or Nothing Charge

The All or Nothing combat bonus of number of stands that get to fight only count in the initial bound of combat. After that the additional sqdns only provide support bonuses. Morale results are carried across all sqdns involved like normal and combat is lost once the principle unit is wiped out.

Re: BLB3 compared to BLB2?

Not sure of a posting somewhere that mentions the differences. But, the big one is different dice for different morale grades, D6 Raw, D8 Drilled etc. The addition of special characters, Master Gunner and the like. In short they brought BlB 3 in line with the Donnybrook rules. The events options wer...

Re: BLB 3 Charging retreating unit question

It's not really covered in the rules Gordon. My take would be as follows. First the charging horse has to pass morale to charge. Retreat and routing units are not interested in sticking around so ignore the rule that they have to check morale and move to (pg 70) 1/4 increments to see if contact is m...

Re: War of 3 Kings - Dense Target

A slight editing typo you may want to add to ant errata you create Barry.

Dense target is covered on page 74 for both artillery and musketry. Non charging horse (unless in a single line) and foot in column of march (unless shooting at the side of the column) are considered dense targets.

Re: Newbie Questions

Thanks Barry and you're correct, don't be shy to post rules questions here Joe. I was heavily involved in the 2nd edition of the rules so I have a solid background with some of Barry's intentions that still apply to this version. I unfortunately didn't have any input to this version while it was bei...

Re: Newbie Questions

Here's how I see how the rules would apply in your given situations. 1. Does Command radius effect orders? We have played it that units outside their commanders radius or that of the Supreme Commander can’t be given orders? It only affects the positive and negative moral and other modifiers to a uni...

Re: War of 3 Kings rules questions

I'll take a crack at these. 1] Routs & Pursuits - Do these occur immediately upon taking the morale test or do you wait until the compulsory moves phase that occurs at the beginning of the first turn. If they occur immediately do you then rout/pursue again at the beginning of the turn. This one is m...

Re: Silly Question for BLB3

Another silly one for clarification. Generals and brigadiers are or are not personalities. I assume no based on definition page 11.

I too apologize, I have been busy with the sudden arrival of a 6 yr old placed into my care. I see that Clarence got to your inquiries so glad for that.

VWQ is a good bit of fun

Re: Blucher.. The Sam Mustafa one.

Not a fan of Maurice but some interesting ideas. I have Blucher, read but not played yet. I have some 6mm figs to make a few units, which I think are the best scale to use for these rules. They are corps and army sized rules so having 28's would work against believing the scale. I'm having a hard ti...
