I've been gifted a load of proper 70s-80s 25mm ECW, which I intend to use with Peter Pig's Regiment of Foote – the first edition. I'm about halfway through basing, and I reckon I'm going to come up 10-15% light on the points, and these won't match the lists minimums (I'm going to be light on cavalry). Will this effect the game/balance? Do I need to reduce the Campaign Points at the start? I'm not keen on bulking up the army with more purchases- that is time and painting that should be going to my original 10mm ECW plan. Thought from RoF players please. |

You might use half sized units (3 foot bases instead of 6 and 2 cav bases instead of 4) and use a damage marker to indicate current strength??
good luck

I thought of that, but it affects frontages, unless I halve all measurements. I'm happy to go with 400-450 point armies, just wondered if I should make any adjustments to Campaign points. |

You could deploy all units in single rank and that would do it!??
