While trolling the forum, I have seen several references to the Russian priests but have not found rules either on the forum or in RtE so I assume that there were scenario specific... I imagine for Borodino.

I wonder if someone could post the rules for these apparently infamous clergy?

Thanks,

Mike

Bob, Jim W (a brigade of brits I think), Bill P (The entire Portugeuse Army!). That is cool but don't worry, we have plenty of gear in addition to these 'fresh' contingents.

Last question for now.... Any preferences for sides? Express an interest and you'll get first dibs...
Its only 1/6th of the Portuguese Army :)

After this lot I'll be taking a break from painting blue and it'll be back to red for a couple of brigades of Brits ;)

Do you need me to bring the Brits as well Barry? (2 brigades and 2 artillery batteries)
As we all know, new troops flee at the drop of a hat, so can you put me down for French please :lol: (just kidding..... I think)

Bill.

British ubit names would be useful please Bill and then I can confirm units needed. Artillery, definitely.


I am working on some new terrain for the game now!

Guess I have a slight preference for Brits but happy to fight either.

Heard a lot of rumours about priests - it'll be interesting to see them in action.

Cheers,

PENINSULAR WAR WEEKENDER 10-11 December 2011

Post by barr7430 » Thu Nov 17, 2011 9:57 am

Chaps,

Some of you have emailed to ask if I'll bring WARFARE orders up to Lundin Links. The answer is yes. If you get the orders in to me by email before the event I'll do the packs at £5.50 each which is about 20% off.
PLEASE DON'T ORDER VIA THE SHOP. Just send me an email to wordtwister@hotmail.co.uk about what you want and paypal to the same email address.

Cheers

B
