Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[Phil Gardocki]

Maybe someone can come up with this.

About 10-15 years ago, one of the dominant miniatures magazines, probably Miniature Wargamers, published an article on visibility.  It was based heavily on French 1800's studies as to what was visible and when.  It contained neat stuff like, but don't quote me. At 200 yards, you could tell the uniforms of the troops, at 300 yards the banners, at 400 yards whether or not it was a mounted formation or not etc.  Does this jog anyone's memory?

I have seen several articles dealing with this. One on the best also
used photos of the same unit at different ranges. It was best case as it
was a grass field with no dust. i will look through my stacks I see if I
can find it.
