Re: The lot of the Russian musketeer….

I'd use what might be called a "full court press" with the cavalry
I hear what you are saying ... we haven't played with a lot of cavalry. The high press could avoid a A class reserve division trusting into a vulnerable area. The lack of PIPs for the Poor commanders is painful tho

Artillery fire

Can artillery fire in the final fire phase (if it didn't fire in preparatory fire) . I can't find the explicite section that forbids is to fire twice (with an action marker) ... unless its the "artillery can initiate fire once per turn" ?

sorry for so many dumb questions ! :oops:

Re: The lot of the Russian musketeer….

French line +2
SK1 integrated +1
Interestingly I've just re-read this and had missed the 'only' in the skirmisher fire section. So that does makes it a little better

Re: The lot of the Russian musketeer….

An example of my 200pt Russian lists (FWIW):
That is way more cavalry than I would currently field :shock: Are these specifically for delaying the french , I can't imagine that A class french are going to be put off by Dragoons in any sort of close combat

Re: The lot of the Russian musketeer….

+2 (2 for line) for french
French line +2
SK1 integrated +1

Russian line +2
Poor Shooters -1
Worse SK -1

On average results you are trading 1 loss vs 1 attrition... so after the first volley and the Ruskis take a loss then it gets even worse!

The lot of the Russian musketeer….

After playing about half a dozen games(including 2 today) I do wonder the relative value between a Russian musketeer (9) and the opposing French Line infantry (12). Given that in a firefight the French will be shooting at a +3 vs a Russian 0. Its unlikely that the French would need to close to allow...

Re: Terrain

right - I see now. So you could get a hill x 2 + building (top) and wood + village (bottom) ...5

so you actually get 3-5 pieces per player table side.

thanks

Re: Reserves under the c-in-c

So the implication is that they can activate at the same time as any division, which can change from turn to turn. So they fire as if divisional artillery for that activation (ie they perform preparatory fire)

Re: Terrain

Each player rolls 2 D6 on the terrain selection table to determine which elements will be placed in his half table. are you reading that as 2 d6 pieces to place. I'm reading that as 1 dice for sector and 1 dice for placement in sector. I can't imagine that each player would place 7+/- each? :shock:
