The inability of the Austrians to use Attack Columns is really hindering them as well, as it makes it hard for them to bring their advantage in numbers to bear, and the infantry can never benefit from the MELEE card!Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-88580035054118067182020-07-06T05:41:10.348-04:002020-07-06T05:41:10.348-04:00Austrians slowly getting worn down, I guess it'...Austrians slowly getting worn down, I guess it's a pretty realistic view of the comparative strengths and weaknesses of the two armies. <br />Best Iain caveadsum1471https://www.blogger.com/profile/02174163740406928172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-83998799436106964402020-07-04T23:04:34.287-04:002020-07-04T23:04:34.287-04:00Thanks, James.

They are going to hurt their resolve (and performance in coming initiatives), I presume?<br />As for the French cavalry... give them to Lasalle, especially those heavies, and he'll sort them out. Put them under the guns for a bit! They are desperately needed on the right (French) and then it will be coq au vin pour les tous!James Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-70871628305923786432020-07-04T18:30:53.828-04:002020-07-04T18:30:53.828-04:00auf Deutsch - "finished/exhausted once again&...auf Deutsch - "finished/exhausted once again"Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-49447646261817158522020-07-04T18:26:43.836-04:002020-07-04T18:26:43.836-04:00Not sure spell checker can sort this "Wieder ...Not sure spell checker can sort this "Wieder erschöpft!" :-) Sgt Steinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805201299484374889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-73999787741028230242020-07-04T16:35:40.523-04:002020-07-04T16:35:40.523-04:00It's both the imitative you have (normally &qu...It's both the imitative you have (normally "equal"), when you have it, and what you can do with it *the cards you turn and the order you turn them!) !Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-9048659908003985202020-07-04T16:31:40.418-04:002020-07-04T16:31:40.418-04:00Looks like the French have really had the upper ha...Looks like the French have really had the upper hand when it comes to initiative.
