We're extending the no shipping and handling charges offer for The Sword and Secession through November 30 due to the amazing response fromn our customers. Here's the original post: "The Sword and Secession" by V. Jay Stribling and the Jackson Gamers, is here. With this variant, you command a regiment at most and more likely only a battalion or a few companies. For every Bull Run or Wilderness, there were a hundred small cavalry actions, naval landings and foraging expeditions. Also included are four (4) scenarios which have been play-tested by the group that was responsible for the play-tests of the original TSATF in 1979. To celebrate, this latest variant for TSATF is now a pre-convention (Colonial Barracks) special, and is available for $15.00 USD USD US and free shipping anywhere. There will be no shipping charges added until after Colonial Barracks, Nov. 2-3-4, 2012 where this variant will be officially unveiled with a rousing game. It will be for sale at the Sergeants 3 table. So take advantage and order your copy now by following this link: sergeants3.com/18.html The Sword and Secession will begin shipping the week of November 5. See you at Colonial Barracks in a few weeks." |

What are "unit" sizes and what do they represent? |
| Liliburlero | 08 Nov 2012 7:45 p.m. PST |
Use standard TSATF sized units, i.e. 20 man infantry, 12 man mounted and sections of artillery (1 gun and 4 gunners). 20 man infantry unit represents 2 companies of infantry. 2 or 3 of these make a battalion. 2 battalions make a regiment. 12 man cavalry unit represents 2 companies (troops) of cavalry. 2 or 3 cav units make a battalion. 2 battalions make a cav regiment. Standard 2-gun section for TSATF is represented by 1 model gun and 4 artillerists. For this variant add 2 more artillerists and for visual effect, a pair of mules. Again in this variant, full batteries will rarely be found but if you must, 2 sections w/a lieutenant make a battery. |

Don't have the rules with me, but I thought a "unit" represented a platoon? Tim |
