Gents,
the Bavarians are done, now for the French and Baden troops for 1809. For my 15 and 28mm TYW and 28mm WOTR I have casualty figures, 1 per base for disrupted and a 2 fig base for fragmented. Will the Napoleonics require a similar system?
Casualty markers.

We use a similar system, but the units will be 'disrupted' or 'wavering'
You can use 1 or 2 casualty base to represent each state if you wish.
I use a casualty base with green grass for disrupted and brown grass for wavering.
There's no real difference except that it requires less 'marker' bases on the table. (with a small saving on the number of figures required)
We don't tend to use 'Broken' or 'Routed' markers - becausae they don't stay on the tabe long enough to need them.

Cheers Terry,
I have now produced 1 and 2 figure bases so they will work, I suspect different coloured bases might get mistaken in the hight of battle where 1 or 2 figs cannot cause confusion. Looking forwards to the rules may give them an outing at the SWMEE at the end of March if they arrive in time!

I use three different kinds of markers. One is fairly smooth ground, one is a bit rockier, and the last one is really rocky. I have the surround of them painted green, orange and red. Nobody has lost track yet of how a unit's cohesion is.nickdives wrote:Cheers Terry,

If you use figures fine, but I don't think not using them adds to confusion.
