Quick Reference Sheet – Setting up a Game

• Battle can take place on any size area.• Each foot in length equates to 1 mile• Players take it in turns to place scenery.• Players then take it in turns to place 3 objectives each.

Each of a players own objectives is worth 2 points to themselves (Primary Objectives), while the oppositions are worth 1 (Secondary Objectives).

• Players count the number of Light Infantry and Light Cavalry units in their force. These are deployment markers.

• The winner of a roll off decides which side of the table her wishes to start on.

• Taking it in turns starting with the player who won the roll, each player takes it in turns to place a marker on at a designated point on their side of the table. All markers will come on at the same point.

• Players then take it turn to move these markers 30 cm at a time. Making sure that a marker is within 30cm of another friendly marker at the end of its move.

• Once markers come within 30 cm of an enemy those markers are locked.

• Once all markers are locked, the area they’ve advance through is that players deployment zone.

Quick Reference Sheet – Awareness Points, ADC’s & Orders

Earning Awareness Points

Spending Awareness Points

Orders to Brigades and Artillery units are delivered by an ADC marker. This

can be any marker you choose, a counter, a single model on a base, however the marker once it arrives must designate what objective that

Brigade has been assigned to attack or defend.

ADC's move at a distance of 40 cm per turn, once an ADC has reached a

Brigade that Brigade is 'Activated' for the remainder of the game. The ADC

should have a marker to denote which objective that Brigade has been

assigned.

Orders

• There should be a number of objectives placed on the field of battle before the game begins. The objective markers should be placed on suitable terrain pieces such as villages, hills or bridges.

• Each player has 3 objectives they may place for a total of 6. These objectives should have some form of marker so the players know what number each objective is.

• A players own Objective markers are worth 1 ‘Tactical Point’ if he holds them at the beginning of the turn with a unit activated for that objective.

• Each player has a number of coloured dice equal to the number of Brigades they have activated on the table. They place these dice into a bag.

• Each player takes turns to draw a dice from the bag. Whoever's dice it is activates and uses one of their brigades.• Once all the dice have been drawn from the bag, that turn is over.• Each unit drawn that turn has 5 actions it may make chosen from the table below.

A game is 30 Turns with one turn representing 10

minutes of time.

Movement

Actions & Reactions

Once a unit has closed to within 10cm of an enemy, remaining actions are made one at a time after passing a morale test. Once the player has completed their action, the enemy can react if they also pass a morale test. Both

sides continue until either the attacker fails a morale test, a unit is removed from play following a rout (losing all its

morale) or 5 actions/reactions have been completed successfully.

A unit that has been broken, has to pass a morale test the following turn to act again, otherwise it will withdraw a further 30cm (Foot) or

40cm (Mounted).

Generals can try and rally broken units by coming into base to base contact with a broken unit. Once they have done so the unit can

use a morale factor of 10 to attempt to rally.

If a unit leaves the table in this fashion it is removed from play

and cannot be used further.

Quick Reference Sheet – Strength, Firing & Combat

The strength of a unit can be determined by the number of men present in the battalion or squadron. Or by the number of guns present in an artillery battery.

For example, in the case of a Battalion of 1,000 men the men is divide by a value of 200 to arrive at the strength of the unit. In this case 5. The number of firing dice or combat dice is the strength value divided by a value of 2.

A player can calculate the number of killed or wounded his side has suffered at the end of the game by taking the total number of hits cause on

his units and multiplying the number by 50 for infantry units and 10 for Cavalry and Artillery units. The player with the least amount of killed or

wounded is considered to have won a ‘Strategic Victory’.

Quick Reference Sheet – Strength, Firing & Combat Continued

Each successful hit from these units cause 1 strength damage and 1 morale damage to its target. Once an enemy receives damage from fire it should immediately make a morale test on its modified morale.

Shooting

Melee

Melee combat occurs when two opposing bases meet in base-to-base contact. Infantry in square formation cannot be contacted by Cavalry, who must remain at least 1 cm away

form the Infantry unit.

They each roll their number of Firing/Combat Dice, any rolls of 4+ are considered Hits. The side with the most hits is considered the winner, however they still take 1 damage due to

casualties inflicted during the struggle. The loser suffers D3 damage and falls back their fleeing distance from the victor. Hits against cavalry can only be achieved with a roll of 6+.

Ending the Game

• Once a turn limit of 30 turns has been reached, the day has reached a point where darkness is falling and fighting cannot continue.• A player can concede the field before this time if they wish.• Once the game is over, players total up the number of hits against their infantry and multiply this by 50. They also multiply the hits against any Cavalry units and Artillery units by 10.

These values give a rough estimate of how many men were killed, wounded or captured during the battle. The player with the least amount of casualties is considered to have won a ‘Strategic Victory’.

• The player who has scored the most ‘Tactical Points’ through the game is considered to have won a ‘Tactical Victory’.
