For a genre like Napoleonics where firearms weren't as reliable and training not as thorough this seems entirely reasonable, and much more relies on a single die roll which adds to the excitementPaul O'Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611720164170399684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870589873354977188.post-78480632732669565522016-10-01T09:33:29.480+10:002016-10-01T09:33:29.480+10:00Take a look at Alternative Armies Michael:

Interesting to note your preference for 'old school' games - something I agree with very strongly.
