Although not much happened, I think I learnt a great deal, especially when it comes to using Linear Tactics.
Right off that bat, I started to notice that once any units went into line and encountered rough terrain, their movement came to a crawl, and that was most apparent with the infantry, as they were then reduced to 1BW of movement. With only 8 turns available for each army, unless they got bonus turns, that did not leave much for either side to really get into action.
Therefore, in order to remedy this for future battles, I am going to increase the minimum turn count from 16 to 20 (10 turns each), and also keep the units in column far longer than I did in the first battle. I really think this will help.
Next up will see the Canadians attacking the Americans. I have already set up the table with terrain and the location of the objective, with the help of my friend Chris, who visited last week.
The table setup looks really interesting (will provide a picture very soon), and gives the Americans plenty of defensive options, as well as the Canadians some things to ponder, on how to reach their objective.
Okay, off to paint more figures!
