Bataille Empire

My first attempt at putting a video on YouTube. There seemed to be only two options. I didn't think this was "adult content". That would give entirely the wrong impression.

It would seem unreasonable that men in a large unit would run faster than those in other units. I can rationalise that running away in a big crowd is more difficult There are more people to get in the way and those at the back don't get as far away. I seem to remember watching the start of races lik...

We have been discussing manoeuvre orders. Infantry can defend itself if attacked. I am presuming that if an infantry unit in a division on manoeuvre orders is fired on, nearby units of that division in position to give fite support may do so. My colleague is suggesting that unless directly fired on,...

Just to be very clear, I did not start this topic on the forum to complain. So far the only items mentioned have no impact on the game itself. As there is only one way to shoot, using 'volley', 'salvo' or 'firing' can only mean one thing. Perhaps it would be good to mention that a rule book is a com...

Unless I have missed something (and if I have report it here) it includes all the features of the new rules version. I have inclu...

The 'BE Army List Program for version2.zip' file can be accessed from drop box using the link in the original post in this topic: https://www.dropbox.com/home/BE%20Army%20List%20Creator/BE%...

I haven't found one in the lists though so should be OK. (Maybe they just run away as soon as the battle starts...

Not spotted any errors yet. Everything looks good.

Thanks, these are my first attempts at making videos of any type. The production quality is not great, but I think the spirit of the game comes across.

Some of the material has been trialed in tournaments and available for those events. It is not just a consolidation of the existing rules. There are many significant changes. Artillery is less effective at short and effective range. Points values have changed and there are many other changes to fact...
