One of my favourite campaigns. Did you use the melee rule from the army lists- 1R column shift for the French in woods and buidings?

Sorry.

Considering everyone I spoke to at Colours was potentially interested in an open day, and Tom likewise at Reading, I am amazed that Tue, 05 Jan 2010 14:55:34 GMT bty84321201 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5016 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5016 For my Christmas game this year I put on Montebello from the Franco-Austrian War of 1859. Details (for 1st edition rules) in POW magazine number 7.

This has now been booked and will take place on Saturday 13th Tue, 15 Dec 2009 22:20:10 GMT ancienthistorian15 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5014 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5014 I have some 15mm SYW figures for sale, nicely painted. One lot is Prussian cavalry (Dragoons, Hussars, Bosniaks Essex and Old Glory), the other lot is Russian Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:38:42 GMT ancienthistorian15 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5013 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5013 For Sale: 10mm Pendraken Russo-Turkish war armies painted to a high standard and based for 19th century POW.

It turned out to be 4 bases short. I ordered the needed figures from Warrior and the Anglo-Indians to go with it. All painted in just over Fri, 04 Dec 2009 00:58:23 GMT pharos5 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5010 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5010 Thanks for the input. As a matter of course: a) I always prepare casualty roster sheets ahead of time. b) I routinely label all my units to help players Thu, 03 Dec 2009 18:18:55 GMT johnhollyoak http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5009 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5009 Hi Dave Thought I would add my bit (for what it's worth). Once you are familiar with the rules 30 odd units a side should be no problem. It has to be quicker Thu, 03 Dec 2009 17:24:28 GMT johnhollyoak http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5008 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/principlesofwar/message/5008 Did you get the pdfs for these armies? I sent them some time ago but never got a confirmation.
