-SD Guard artillery (small)

2nd:...competent
-AD Light Inf (small) + arty
-AD Light Inf (small) + arty

-AC Line Inf (small)
-AD artillery (small)

-AV Line Inf (small) + arty
-AC Line Inf (small)

4th:...competent

-extra unit if initiative 3+: AD Light Lancers (small)

Every unit facing the enemy put out 6 dice (and 4 if enemy cavalry were within 6MU).

I tried a saxon version of it . interesting 6 dice to shoot :-)

Just had to remember that light infantry is not skirmish infantry and so I got 5 dice shooting as light infantry + 1 for the artillery attachment .

Very interesting
