(troops being 20, 15 or 10mm depending on who was hosting - with my 40's we used full distance even on the 6x8 table)<br /><br />What we did for our small brigades was to allow them to count battalion guns as units thus 4 battalions plus a battalion gun = 5 and 3 units needed to be lost to shake the brigade. So far seems to work for us.<br /><br />We have also discussed extending artillery long range but I would be wary of extending short range. Ever since we noticed the negative save modifier for artillery it is already a powerful destroyer (of course we like to put a fair number of guns on the table). As far as I can tell (from comparison), medium range artillery is cannister fire and long range is point blank ball.<br /><br />I'm just catching up on some missed posts, great battle reports!

I'd personally not go with your unit sizes since my units are larger . . . but everything you list makes good sense.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595975572873838050noreply@blogger.com
