Move 1
French move first
French
do not want to redeploy until they see how the British advance
It
is a disadvantage for them to move first this time
British move second
British
advance full move and deploy cavalry on their right
All
are still outside French artillery range and cavalry charge range
Summary
The
French have to deploy first, because they are defending
The
British can take advantage of any weakeness when they deploy
They have used the farm to shield most of their infantry from the French gunners
The
side which moves first has the advantage of movement and combat first
However
in this case they want to see what the British will do before they redeploy
Paul,
ReplyDeleteI look forward to the next part in a state of great anticipation!
All the best,

Hi Bob
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment, and glad you are enjoying it
It gets more complicated as it goes on, and (I hope) more interesting
I started just wanting to explain how the BUA fighting works. But as the game goes on I realised that all of the other combat is important to the BUA part. For example artillery casualties to reserves removes them from supporting the garrison of BUA.
Hope that you continue to enjoy the game
regards
Paul
