To each his own and all that but i've been an avid pc fog player and i can't wait putting my hand on this Fog 2 !!!

All right then, time, for me, to post public challenges then. Thanks

Hello gentlemen, while being extremely pleased with the pc version of Pike and Shot, i'm a bit puzzled by
the lack of non private multiplayer games (actually none...). Is this the trend of multiplayer games;
just playing with friends?
(I'm aware i can start one myself^^)

Blathergut, yup i did notice that some arr's reported that 6 paks could be resilient but wasn't
so sure that it involved poor conscripts ^^.

Thanks Dead, nice to see there are options for large armies whether they are playable or not
is another story though
I was also thinking of Neapolitan Spanish but that maybe a little too much
thanks again

Hi gents, For some odd reasons i like to play "horde" armies and would like to know whether the Austrian can field more average conscript than the 24 max bases found in the rulebook (Austrian corps 1813)? I'm still waiting for my Triumph of Nations book so don't know about earlier Austrian...

This technique might be helpful:

It shows an axe instead of an armour but i'm sure it can be used for armours too, i
actually plan to use this method for my armoured guys.

yes +1

From the link:

The premiere game was a first try out of FoG Renaissance with Oskars stunning 28mm Swedish and Polish TYW armies.

very nice paint job indeed.

Some very useful references from Daniel S about French wars of religion:

sorry for the triple post btw...

Spring, all I will say is, despite my affinity with the Huguenots, if you want to try a Hugenot army with MF, Superior, Arquebus shot BGs without Pike, I will take the army of Guise and the Leaguers. Gendarmes, Superior Swiss, and Artillery, plus mixed foot BG of Landesnequets looks a better bet to...

Well nobody (other than the authors) knows yet as the books have not been published.

However:

Huguenots: Pikes, Cuirassiers [Heavily Armoured, Superior Horse, Impact Pistol, Melee Pistol], Commanded shot [Arquebus]

Well done, very welcome bit of visual information !

not always to much effect...

Not very encouraging I suspect their best use remains against other horses like previously suggested.

Oh 16pts, i was thinking determined horse with there 21pts^^, that gives room for a good amount of
supported horses then. Still they won't get the same use as mass shooting infantry units, we''ll see
what wi'll be supported horses best use when used en masse.

Cuirassiers from 1577. (Horse, Superior, Heavily Armoured, Impact Pistol, Melee Pistol).

The commanded shot are also only from 1577.

Hum, even with many commanded shot available, i'm not sure you're going to use that many with such pricey
troops (Cuirassiers, sup...)

I've never seen any beta list for this period and my fog:renaissance gaming experience is rather...slim, so i'm going to take your words and gather some informations about the Duc of Guise ^^as a possible tenth? painting project :) Of course a Huguenot version with lot of commanded shot migth still ...

Spring, if you are playing in book, anything without Pike is going to get rolled over by all those Gendarmes, VERY, VERY quickly. aaahh, but that's what i'm trying to figure :) is there a chance to shot down more units than what i might lose using a heavy shooting army [rbs] Your pardon, I accident...

aaaww, well ok, thanks for the reply.

Wondering whether there will be any pure sup shot in this army.
For what it's worth, Gush list had many B shooting troops which
could be equivalent to sup troops.

I like Henry of Navarre and pluderhosen
