A question on FIRING
after an extensive but negative search within the forum posts, I come up with a question regarding the number of figures in a battalion actually eligible to fire.
Since I deploy them in the standard 1808 French Reform order, as per the below scheme:
VVV 111 222 333 444 GGG
VVV 111 222 333 444 GGG
Do I have to assume that only 33 figures are actually eligible to fire, since Voltigeur are usually based on 2 single ranks bases ?
Also, since I should eventually field 1 (and sometimes even 2) Velites regiments from my Guard Units, composed by entirely by Voltigeur
VVV VVV VVV VVV VVV VVV
VVV VVV VVV VVV VVV VVV
do I have to assume that only 18 figures are eligible to fire ?
Both ranks fire in close order. Single rank in skirmish...so 36 and 36.
