Against Craig’s Kushans.🙀

  • Dirk Heinsius Yes thanks to Paul for a great couple of days. Enjoyed every game immensely, even the Varian Disaster in the last round.
  • Allen Yaxley Question about Neil’s impressed shipping arrival on my flank. 🥺
    Impressive use of the rules by the way Neil.
    If I line myself up on the beach do we fight him as disembarked or as naval still embarked. I fled his arrival thinking that was good but now think I should have rushed him. 🙀

    • Neil Williamson The references are pg 10 (4th bullet) pg 22, pg 31
      I don't think that pg 28 applies as it states on page 31 that elements are placed disembarked and pg 10 states there are no models. Pg 31 also states that any troops in the way are moved back to make room.
