I'm always glad to see the view from the other side of the fence. Robert

Two things: I note that marching and counter-marching lowers the morale of the troops (as always), yet tin soldiers and cardboard counters don't mind at all.

Second, that introducing new troops (artillery batteries, in this case) fires up the troops and gets pinned down troops moving forward again, something else our tin guys don't notice.

Again, thanks for the link.
