Hi Terry, First of all, thx for your game during IWC Brussels 2014, I enjoyed it, even if your Flank attack completely trashed me :oops: ! If you remember, you advised me to try out LARGE Heavy Cav units in my Anglo-Belgian list; However, apart from the already discussed Cav restrictions for this Li...

Hi, This year I will visit the Naval Academy at Monterey, California, from 18-31 Oct 2013 and would like to have the opportunity to play a game with an US opponent. I am from Belgium and have a lot of FOG Ancients experience and starting FOGN; Please note I will not be bringing my armies overseas. I...

Hi, I am basing my 15mm British battalions in 2 bases (8 figures each), so a brigade of 2 bat (4 bases)constitute a small FOGN unit, 3 bat a large unit. As default I base this brigade (32 fig) of 2 bat, 1 bat with 3 grenadier figs and Kings Colours, 1 bat with 3 light figs with Regimental colours). ...

Thanks every one for the replies. Where in the rules does it define a skirmish line as an extended line, I would have thought they are two different and separate formations? They are two different things, but a unit can be in both if it is skirmisher capable. Last weekend I had the honour to play a...

So in the POA-table 'siege' artillery is actually 'heavy' artillery ?
There is no difference with a howitzer ?

Quid mortars, are there included in any army list ?

Like wise question for heavy art attachment : what is the extra 2 points for compared to a medium attachment ?

Unless a heavy art unit can only have a heavy art attachment and a medium unit only a medium attachment, but I have not found a rule for this.

Thx for the clarification,

Hi, I finally have my answers regarding the Belgian militia, thx to the support of the Dutch army museum. It seems the Belgian militia were the first (and thus only troops in the waterloo campaign) to have been issued the new Austrian style shako with white metal sunray plate and rearvisor; same as ...

Hi Philip, Thx a lot for the link; Unfortunately it seems not to be that simple. On the website of the national Dutch army museum it is stated that the depiction of 'Belgian' militia headgear is probably wrong and they should apparently wear 'belgic shakos' but this is not certain; I have asked them...

Happy new Year indeed, never thought I would receive a printed version of the V2 ancient rules in 2012, but I actually got it at the last minute; HALEJULA, Unfortunately cannot read it at the moment but will start in 2013 after all parties first thing next morning....euh make that afternoon; Let the...

Hello, I also pre-ordered my POD copy ! Many players (me included) were upset when Slitherine announced a sole digital nonprintable version and thus requested firmly a printed version as well; however no one at that time expressed a caveat or cap on its price; When Slitherine correctly responded wit...

Of course !!!!

But it is not on the continent (according to the British that is)

Thx Jilu,

I know of this site, but as the Belgian Militia did not fight in this campaign, they are not covered here;

Still curious what uniform they wore;

.....Mike has said he would look at some wording. Let's see what he comes up with It seems there is a consensus the minima of British cavalry is too high. Any idea when there will be an 'official' ruling ? I am in the market for an Anglo-Belgic army for some time now but still am not sure of its co...

...de plus les hussars avaient un boulevard bers la ligne de communication russe....game over en une seule charge Wow, un vrai 'Death Ride', le nom du colonel des hussars francais n'est pas par hasard 'von Bredow', grand-père de... :) Le planning est de tout faire pas à pas et donc cela peut durer ...

Attached a few cavalry actions; I also learned a lot during my visit, i.e. the local guide in Smolensk told me Alexanders' Guard Uhlans were all selected for their red hair and bleu eyes, in addition they shaved their eyebrows ! I could not verify the facts but the guide seemed very good informed. O...

Hi, recently returned from a battlefield tour in Russia and made > 1000 photos, enclosed a few photos I want to share of the re-enactment of Borodino 2012 to give an impression; Don't worry, the staff officers' horse was not really shot down, he merely slipped, nobody got injured (apart from some eg...

Oui Chef , je l' envoie encore cette weekend !!

Comme j'ai pas encore d'experience je préfère de jouer 06 Oct contre un 'ancien', mais jouer au double est aussi une bonne idée !

...on the russian side you have a Brigade general in Tormassov's army . His name is Léopold de Saxe-Cobourg ...our future first king Jacques, very interesting but are you sure about this, where did you find this info? AFAIK our Leopold was a Russian Cuirassier general and charged in the battle of K...
