THE RULES
Leader cannot leave one Unit and join another Unit
in the same activation.
If the Unit to which a Leader has been attached
throws a 6 during a Cohesion Test you must test to
see the effects on the Commander himself. Roll a die
and with a 5 or 6 the Leader is dead.
If the Commander dies all the bonuses are lost.
A Leader is not lost if the Unit to which he is attached
is destroyed without there being a requirement to
test. In this case the base of the General is left behind
at the site of the destruction and can be moved if it
has not already done so during this activation. But
the Leader cannot be attached to another Unit until
the next activation.
NEW TROOP TYPES
RE (CM) stands for Reiters. Can evade.
DR (FL) stands for Dragoons. Can perform an addi-
tional 2H movement like S and CL (under the same
conditions). Can evade.
P&M (FP) stands for Pike&Musket
TE (FP) stands for Tercio. Ignores Flank and Rear
attack in melee. Large Unit.
H&M (CM) stands for Horse and Musket.
FT (T/FP) stands for Close Order Foot.
The troop in parenthesis is the troop type they re-
gard as the same for movement, interpenetrations
and deployment. FT counts as T for movement (with
some exceptions) and interpenetration, but as FP if
in melee VS mounted (they get the +1 modifier in
Cohesion Test).

MOVEMENTS CHANGES
All foot can move full speed in Difficult Terrain but
with Disorder. If they move half speed they are not
disordered.
Artillery moves 2H if on foot and 3H if Horse Artil-
lery.
Change of formations (optional)
These rules simulate Units already deployed for bat-
tle. If you play Napoleonic battles then you may feel
the need to adopt a simplified system to manage
these changes.
To change from line to supported line and vice
versa you spend one activation (counts like a move-
ment).
A Unit in supported line halves (rounding up) the
dice when shooting, but gets a +2 in melee.
Squares are made as a reaction to a charge by mount-
ed troops. They need to pass a test.
Roll 1d6
Veteran and Elite pass the test with 1+ (or 2+ if in
Disorder)
Green pass the test with 5+ (or 6+ if in Disorder)
Trained (and other FT with VBU 5 or more) pass the
test with 3+ (or 4+ if in Disorder)
A Unit in square cannot perform Defensive fire. It
nullifies impetus bonus of mounted and gives a +1 in
melee. Firing with artillery to a Unit in square gives
a +2 modifier.
To change from square to line or supported line
you need to spend a move when activated.
March column is not represented as we feel it’s not
relevant according to the game scale.
If you have Units on single bases just place a marker
to identify the formation.
Dismounting from horse
Some Units can dismount (and remount) from
horse. This action is considered a movement. You
cannot fire after remounting. You can fire after dis-
mounting but always with a -2 modifier.
Evasion of artillery
Artillery can evade.

SAMPLE LISTS
These are some sample lists to play Basic Battles. We
choosed armies through the whole period covered by
Basic Battles to provide you a guide to build you own
armies. So feel free to adjust your armies to include
more troops types or by taking inspiration from real
order of battles. Just take care that balance is assured
within historical opponets (we didn’t design this set
to play Confederates VS Zulu or ECW Royalists VS
9
French Foreign Legion, of course you can play these
matches but don’t expect these lists to take in consid-
eration a balance between those armies).
More lists will follow, so keep an eye on Dadi&Piombo
webiste and on Wargames Vault. Also Players are en-
couraged to share their lists or scenarios in the fo-
rum.
