Is there list out there somewhere that explains the abbreviations used for V&B and the effect on units? I know PT is poorly trained and the unit does not get a free facing move but there are many others such as FI, SI, PM, and more that I can't find. Thank you for any help. Tom |

Hi Tom, PM is poor musketry, as set out on p99 of Road to Glory. It would help if you could tell me where you have found the others in the rules? Mollinary |

Not sure these abbreviations survived the play testing of various different scales of V&B which were merged into Road to Glory. That said, and looking at the units that are so classified "Slow Infantry" and "Fast Infantry" would seem a reasonable guess. Mollinary |
