So three Poloemos bases could make a battalion or cav regt. But do you Mon, 06 Oct 2008 16:36:01 GMT Tim95th http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8041 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8041 The other possible simple alternative for Polemos based figures is to use 2 bases per battalion/cavalry regiment. As long as both sides are based the same this Mon, 06 Oct 2008 16:31:26 GMT sbtrescue http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8040 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8040 My first post...

How are casualties resolved Sun, 05 Oct 2008 17:31:17 GMT Mike Leese http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8036 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/shako/message/8036 Simon, Easy Way :- Get or Make (cut) some 1 cm. squares of card as formation markers.

For most nations this requires at least two bases (back to back for squares).

They can not be split and only fire once, as though they were one gun model on one base.
