   Sam,

   first of all let me congratulate for the game. It is the clearest ruleset I've ever read (and I'm wargaming since 1986..), I think it is fun, subtle and gives the feeling of napoleonic combat.
   The question comes from my first game and from some deeper reading (I already checked the errata before asking).
   Reinforcements entrance: the rules say that I have to roll 2 dice and add the subcommander Vigor. On a modified roll LESS THAN the current turn they enter.
   It seems strange that a Vigor +1 subcommander is a hindrance to reinforcements entry and a Vigor -1 one is an advantage...
   Thanks in advance
   Sergio

   I think you add the vigor to the turn number not the roll , check the rules again.

   Thanks Keith (and Sam) my brain should have been turned off when I read that paragraph..
   I found another point referring to unlimbered (Foot or Horse) artillery rerolling a failed reaction test, but I have not the book with me now.. My sensation was that there could be a typo in the book.
   I'll check and come back (I'll make sure my brain is turned on before doing it).
   Second game this evening....
   Cheers
   Sergio

   Found it: page 37 / Reaction: Fall back / Discipline test required
   It says "Unlimbered Horse artillery... may re-roll a failed fall back attempt, unless attacked by enemy cavalry" and immediately after "Unlimbered artillery (foot or horse)... Must re-roll a successful fall back attempt, unless has a refuge. Etc..

   Maybe the first "unlimbered" should be "limbered"?

   Ah, it is a typo, you're exactly right. The header should read "Limbered."

   I'll put it in the Errata
