Detachment moves, I've never played one, but could the detachment start the
deployment behind its parent and thus march to "catch up" or maybe even deploy
where it can march around the parent for 1 segment? I.E. start on left and move
to right? Mark

My way of dealing with this is to start the LI detachmen in a column behind
and off to the side of the parent.
I have been able to keep the LI marching all 4 phases even when the parent
is close order foot.
In the end they are both stopped by enemy troops and are lined up 240 away,
so the results are ok.
However, this is one rule I think could be changed, that a detachment can
opt to march its first bound when the parent first marches.

Rob,
Firing away....
But seriously. No one doubts that pretty terrain enhances the view of
the game. And given my druthers, I love forest scapes and real hils and
actually own a few and occasionally play with them.
But for me, it is a playability issue. I cant play woods troops in the
forest scapes without moving them, and my figures are falling off the slopes
of the hills. As such, I use my pretty terrain only when I am sure I won't
be playing on them. Or I place the forest scape in my opponents deployment
area, where he would comfortably want to place his tablet or elbows:}
I do carry ruberized terrain, the water, edges, and roads look good, and
do are not a transport issue.
Phil
