Thanks for the videos. I’m putting together some Perry Miniatures American Civil War stuff and this is the rules set they seem to correlate with and have provided. I also got the ACW expansion set of rules. Interested in giving it a go. 👍
Interesting but confusing at times. For example do the distance/formation modifiers affect the brigade command dice roll, the number of commands they can receive, or what? My understanding is that you want to roll low numbers, so why would minus modifiers be bad and vice-versa? Thanks. Edit: 18:30--So a commander can remove "hits" on units with rally rolls? What exactly is that supposed to represent in real combat? Removing effect of casualties on unit morale?
It's representative of a units fatigue in battle, it can be casualties, lack of ammo, morale it's representative but a mate of mine does a thing where of he rolls like a 6 on a d6 he will remove one base to represent casualties and if less then it's a unit fatigue hit so a unit could take casualties but still not break all could break due to fatigue. but yeah when a commander rallies he is reducing the units fatigue like morale or more ammo etc
Sorry but i have Just a one question: Can a normal Line infantry like British Waterloo infantry change their formation into skirmish when they want to get through the Forest?

So no refusing a flank? Fredrick the Great would be so upset. Very linear
