Forming in two ranks wouldn't fool anybody in viewing range about your strength for very long, it would be fairly easy to deduce whether the opposing line is two or three ranks deep!...

I always appreciate the victory point fine tuning involved in creating a well balanced scenario, especially from the perspective of how that helps nudge play in more historical directions. The irony is though, I don't mind playing a disadvantage side as the only thing I'm really concerned with ultim...
