Brothers i have to get this off mee chest, having just played my first game of There are your Guns .I am So disappointed in them !
I play a lot of British Grenadier and General de Brigade( and i bloody love them, best sets of rules in my eyes
) the rules are set around them so the basics are the same in all the sets !
Initiative, charges ,movement,firing melee and morale..
As for the Morale section we where just blown away by how easy it was for units to pass ! I dont think we had a single unit fail a test ! not when you need to score 6 on two D6 .and the + far out weighted the -
on average a unit would get a +2/3 add to his score
C in C /SO or Brigade general within 12 " +1
Brigade general Attached to unit +2
steady ( troop class eg. normal line ) vet ,elite , +1 ,+2,+3
there are very few - in the morale -1 for conscript/raw and that all the - for troops to charge into combat !
so you dont get any of the other factors like !
cas / DP suffered in the charge !
over 10% , 25% 35%+ Casualties!
friendly troops retreating routing ect.
The unit is unform ect...
The thing is , I dont see how it could of got passed play testing ! like that !
When the morale is SO FAR OUT ! YOU CANT play the game when the morale is so far out its madness
,
Its easy to put right,
we will play it with ALL the General de Brigade Morale factors in it ! jobs a good un!
So Brothers have you had/ played a set of rules that did not live up to your expectation.
right quick beer then bed happy gaming lads LR
