To the Strongest - Expanded Summary Sheet

Although the summary sheet/QRS that comes with To the Strongest is adequate, both Barry and I felt it could be more comprehensive and yet still occupy no more than 2 sides of a sheet of paper. I also like my sheets color coded by section. Here then is my attempt; I was able to fit it onto 2 pages in MSWord format. I'll be using these for my games on Saturday at Portal Con.

To the Strongest! Version 1.1 (c) Simon Miller/Big Red Bat ventures 2015

ACTIVATION AND MOVEMENT     (Remember Zone of Control!)

Easy Activations

Either MOVE or CHARGE 1 box straight ahead, 2 boxes if Mounted

SHOOT (Bowmen [not LI] and Organ Guns may shoot twice if neither Disordered or in Difficult terrain)

Difficult Activations    Deep units = Doubly Difficult! *Activations are never Difficult for Light troops, nor do they go Out of Command
