As can be seen by the, the table has two main features. First, it is bordered on the East by a River that is fordable only at the bridges or by pontoons carried with the retreating main body. The second feature is the many roads. They are important as the entry points of the various retreating and pursuing units. These will be rolled for as explained later. The hills and woods have the usual terrain penalties and advantages.

ORDER OF APPEARANCE

The turn upon which units enter the table and their location is critical to the game. The first part of the game will be little more than moving troops. NB: DUE TO THEIR EXHAUSTION "MAIN BODY" TROOPS MAY NOT DOUBLETIME OR USE 'SPECIAL MOVES." The main body should also dice for road as follows:

Roll	Road
0-3	Road A
4-6	Road B
7-9	Road C

Roll	Arrival
0	Arrive Turn 1
1,2	Arrive Turn 2
3,4	Arrive Turn 3
5-6	Arrive Turn 4
7,8	Arrive Turn 5
9	Arrive Turn 6

With each Division Card and the Corps HQ is separately rolled. The Rear Guard enters on Turn 7 and many Doubletime as well as choosing which road it will take for its entry. The Pursuers roll for roads on the above chart and for appearance as follows:

0 - Turn 10
1- Turn 11
2,3 - Turn 12
4,5 - Turn 13

Each division and the Corps HQ roll separately, but the Cavalry Division rolls with a -2 Modifier.

NOTES ON GAME PLAY

All unit class and CO levels are as in OTR. The Pontoon Unit builds its bridge as if it were a rebuilding unit. It must regain 3 "stands" to complete the bridge. While it cannot engage in combat, it is rated as elite. Two artillery hits will destroy the pontoon bridge. Fleeing units may seek safety over river or try to rebuild. All Union Main Body units roll for morale with the assumption that they were once 6 stand Brigades. That is to say that a 3 stand Brigade would roll at a - 1 5 for lost stands, etc.

VICTORY CONDITIONS

I truly believe that this game is best worked out at the playing. How well did each General do his job? Try this one at your next club meeting. It is really different and very challenging.
