Be nice if Soldiers could gain some “negative” traits during the campaign (such as the men not trusting the Captain after this battle). Not sure how you could implement it in game mechanics in a rulebook (perhaps any “Leadership” bonuses not activating making the officer a non functional link in the chain of command).

Such traits would have to be slight I guess (as anything major would cause the soldier to be pulled off the active roster).

And your tables Piers just defy belief for a humble home set up. I always wondered where you got the ruined barn (as in the last AAR) from. I’ve seen it used in you WW2 games and now in the far east. Seems a very versatile bit of terrain. And it’s also taking me back to see the old lichen appear on the table (once the mainstay of wargaming terrain, even if it just sheds and gets everywhere 😀 )
