| OK after playing around a bit with the game here are my thoughts, Blake is right we should allow melee in turn-based games without restriction. WITH THAT SAID Some facts about the game i learned 1. only 1 unit at a time can Melee across a bridge 2. A mounted Cavalry unit of even 10 men can prevent a... |

| GREETINGS ALL I would like to clear up a gray area in this system. I believe Most play where you cannot Melee in column except in towns or crossing bridges. Is this the Standard? TOWNS 1.

| Nice thread. I tend to agree with everything said' Perhaps the answer is all of the Above Higher chances of running out of ammo I mean 5 hexes in this game is 625 yards, Even If you could hit a target at that range the energy of that bullet would be very low. I own a 1861 Springfield 58 Cal, Rifled ... |

Ran into a great player in Rick Trembley. Sadly I bailed 20% into 2 games I feel bad and do not want to make a habit of that. With that said I have decided to play smaller shorter battles 1 in order to actually finish the game and 2 to learn this great game system.
Just felt the urge to post this |
