Good looking game. It looks very Napoleonic. I like those buildings too. Fine rule system. I will be running a game myself at my house in early February. I may try your scenario idea. Tom

Does anyone have photos of 28mm units based up for ESR? I looked at the handy table for basing and it looks like the basing system I have doesn't match. I currently base my 28mm figures with a 15mm frontage per figure. Depth is not really something I worry about because it is so out of wack anyway that it doesn't matter. How would I make ESR work with my current basing?

Thanks David, a good way to do it. Tom

TWC, That helps but unfortunately isn't something I'm setup to do. Using 6 figures frontage for a battalion is not in the same ratio for me. Our battalions range from 30 to 48 figures in 28mm. I was hoping that I'd be able to match up my mounting system to your rule set to see how it might play out but it seems that given my situation that it will not work. Thanks for the help.

In the first posting on here, you were using 15mm? How many figures to a base and how big were the bases? Doug
