THREE for Poodle Pie!!!!!

Post by Blathergut »

:twisted:

Yet again the poodle is made into pie (well, figuratively...the damn thing's too fast to catch when it's running away!).

>Dragoons almost made it across the table and into artillery but taking something like 8 shooting dice twice doomed them. :cry:
>Commanders are essential wherever you want BGs to stand...otherwise, as we've seen in each game, if cohesion starts to go, the shooting finishes you off very quickly. But with a commander, we've seen disrupted BGs come back frequently.
>Royalist cavaliers + commanded shot are slloooooooooooooow. :twisted:

A good game, with a wider table (4 x 8) which gave dragoons some room (and wishing the entire game for a commander!!!!).

>Reserves are critical! I think in all three games, when BGs up front broke, if something was behind, at least you had a chance. When stuff up front breaks and nothing is behind...leads to major problemos!! I have carved into every die...keep an average pike/shot BG in reserve behind the main punch superior ones.

>>as RBS mentioned once, dragoons are very susceptible to cohesion tests in 3paks....found that out when one BG tried to charge across the table into enemy artillery :shock:
