Going to run a game this weekend. The scenarios don't seem to suggest a table size. Just wondering 5x8 or 4x6? Using 25mm

How big are your forces?

Playing scenario 2, about 30 mutineers (6 man units)
8 British units (6man)

If you want the opposing forces to come into contact quickly I'd suggest 4 x 6.

IIRC, the rules allow an attacking unit to fall back and avoid taking a morale penalty. In that case I'd give the Mutineers a fair amount of room to maneuver. I also recall that, at least in my play test of the rules, this led to a lot of yoyo-ing on the part of the mutineers to the point where it became almost humorous.

I have played 'Sepoy' with the author on a number of occasions and we usually played on a slightly larger table, more like 8x5 …
