In fact all the rules on Northeastern Indians would be usable for South-East Indians, but the Indians must react like Indians …
Rules for the Indian Wars of the second half of XIX would not be valid ?
And "Too few to fight too many to die "(TFTFTMTD !?) and its specifically seminole list below!?
List N ° 1 – The Eastern Forest Tribes – Seminole Army of the
Second Seminole War – 1835 to 1842:
Warriors on foot with bows – 4 points.
Warriors on foot with muskets – 6 points.
Warriors on foot with bows and muskets -7 points.
2 to 9 units of 2 to 8 stands of 2 figures.
Seminoles must have at least three times as many muskets as bowmen.
Seminoles can have up to 8 stands equipped with 9 pts muzzle-loading rifles to replace musket-equipped stands.
Seminoles can have up to 4 stands equipped with muskets or muzzle-loaded rifles counted as 'Sharpshooters'. (+ 6 pts per stand)
Chef Osceola is counted as exceptional (+ 25 pts for his stand)
No. 13 – U.S. Army in the West 1833 – 1890:
Despite its title, this list can be used for the U.S.forces engaged in the second semole war in Florida, which continued long after the end of the "regular in the East" list period, but neither the Texas-Rangers nor the Friendly Indians, can not be used to fight the Seminoles.
Dragons, 'Mounted Rifles' or Cavalry. Cavalry with muzzle loading rifles – 8 pts.
0 to 9 units from 2 to 8 stands of 2 figures.
Regular U.S. Infantry: Regular with muskets – 4 pts.
0 to 9 units of 2 to 8 stands of 3/4 figures.
Indian friends: Warriors on horseback with bows – 10 pts -, or 'untrained' with muskets – 10 pts.
0 to 5 units of 2 to 8 stands of 2 figures.
Light smoothbore field gun: 30 pts.
0 to 2 units of 1 stand of 1 cannon with 2 to 4 artillery figures.
After 1860, any or allof the cavalry may have revolvers in addition to their long guns. (+ 3 pts)
After 1854 up to half of the regulars can be re-armed with muzzle loading rifles. (+3 pts)
After 1866 one to all elements can be rearmed with breech-loading weapons (rifles if infantry and 10 pts per stand; carbines if cavalry and 12 pts per stand)
These are the mistakes I found …
False! From 1833, the first U.S. Dragons regiment was equipped with a rifle as new as the Hall.
Invented by John Hall, experienced since 1816 and adopted in 1819, the Hall was the first weapon to be loaded by the breech that was officially chosen by an army.
The 1833, 1836, 1840, 1842, and 1843 1833, 1843, 1843 and 1843 Hall Carbines distributed to the U.S.Dragons all had a modern Fulminate percussion batterie called by the American Cap and Ball.
From 1847, the cavalry gradually adopted a new carbine, called "U.S.Model 1847 Cavaly Musketoon".
Alas, with a classic percussion batterie, she loaded herself with a stick as before.
This apparent backtracking was probably dictated by the hallmark of the Hall carbine: the loss of power due to the poor sealing of its tilting bolt. In conclusion, from 1833 to 1846, one to all elements of dragons can be rearmed with breech-loading weapons. (12 pts per stand)
After 1880 one to all cavalry elements can be rearmed with breech-loading weapons and repetition. (15 pts by stand)
These are the mistakes I found …
False! Coming from the very first research of Samuel Colt, the barrel rifle companion of the first patented revolver caused a sensation with its charge to ten coups.
Of the 100 examples manufactured, 30 were lost at sea and 50 were used in Florida during the second Seminole war where they were damaged or lost.
In conclusion, during the second Seminole War up to 5 stands of dragons can be equipped with breech-loading weapons and repetition. (15 pts by stands)
It was then from 1862 that the U.S. cavalry would have regiments equipped with breech-loading carbines and repetition. (15 pts per stands), these are the Spencer models of which there were more than 94,000 units in service for cavalry and infantry during the Civil War and Henry to ten thousand copies in service in the United States. infantry during the Secession War.
Spencer served at least until 1875 in the U.S. Army.
After 1860 one to all field gun stands can be upgraded to medium smoothbore guns or light- rifle guns (48 pts)
After 1865 a piece of artillery can be rearmed with a Gatling or Hotchkiss machine gun (36 pts)
The term "hotchkiss machine gun" refers to Hotchkiss revolver gun, a Gatling revolving barrel machine invented in 1872 by Benjamin B. Hotchkiss (1826-1885), founder of Hotchkiss & Co.
It was built with oil-cooled, fast-firing, striped guns, having a rectangular breech block that moved in a mortise.
It was designed to be light enough to accompany the cavalry and had a range greater than the infantry weapons.
All or none of the U.S. regular infantry elements may be classified as regular mounted (+ 2 pts).
Between 1846 and 1865, up to 2 units of any type could be replaced by Texas Rangers: Gallant cavalry with muzzle-loading rifles and revolvers (14 pts).
