Defensive Works: While this Formation remains in play, the Shropshire Lane and Sopwell Lane Formations do not suffer more than one hit when Attacked.

Note that this ability is negated whenever the Yorkists' Archers Special Formation has a cube on its card.

When this Formation is Routed, the Defensive Works ability is permanently lost.

I know, I know - you want some historical commentary. Warwick snuck around the formidable enemy front-line defenses to capture the King in their rear. Warwick squeezed from his end, Salisbury and York from theirs, with the other guys stuck in the middle, thus negating the enemy's positional advantage.

If there are dice on this card, you MAY, but are not required to, remove all dice on this card when taking an Action or a Reaction with another Formation. If you do so, the dice thus removed count as ONE "wild" die, matching the type needed to take the Action or Reaction.

For example, if an Action does one hit per die and you have two dice on that card and two dice on this card, you can remove these dice along with the dice on the other card to inflict three hits. If a Reaction requires a Pair and you only have one die on the card in question, you MAY (but again are not required to) remove the dice from this card to use them as one die to complete the Pair.

Often these battles began with skirmishing forces up-front fighting with each other before the heavier infantry was engaged. Usually these preliminaries aren't a great fit for the scale and emphasis of this system.

If you feel like their absence in the other scenarios is a deal-breaker, use this optional rule: roll a die. If it's a 1-3, your skirmishers beat the other side's, and if it's 4-6, theirs beat yours. This does not constitute routing and no morale cubes change hands.

If after rolling you cannot or do not place any dice on a Pink Formation, remove the cube from this card, adding it to your Morale Cubes. This card is then removed from play and all remaining Pink Formations Rout immediately.

When Catinat makes an attack, you may - but are not required to - add all dice from this card to the attack. This is the only way dice can be removed from this card. If you do so, the attack cannot be Countered, and Catinat suffers no self hits. After resolving this special attack, remove this card from play (this does not constitute a Rout).

Catinat's mass bayonet charge at Marsaglia is often regarded as the first of its kind, and was instrumental in securing a decisive victory that saw the Grand Alliance suffer five times as many casualties as the French.

Sticks on this card count toward Tactical Victory. That is, at the start of the game, you already have 8! Of course, Shifting will reduce that number.

George II blamed the defeat on Charles's inaction. If you had asked Charles, though, he'd have said that holding their position near the Jeker kept the line of retreat open, and is what saved the Pragmatic Army. In any case, the Austrians don't have much to do in this scenario, but here they are just the same.

When a wide gap opened up in the Austrian line, von Mannstein on his own initiative marched in with four grenadier battalions, forcing the Austrians to abandon their earthworks. This threatened the main part of the army under Charles's command, leading him to withdraw toward Prague.

The 72-year-old Schwerin commanded the army for an ill Frederick. When he saw his own regiment in retreat, Schwerin grabbed the colors and rode into battle. "Let all brave Prussians follow me!" After just a few paces, a blast of grapeshot removed half of his head, killing him instantly.

The 51-year-old Browne commanded the defense of the Austrian right, throwing off the Prussians with great success. While planning a general counterattack, his leg was hit by a cannonball. His removal left the Austrian line rudderless. Browne would die from his wounds 52 days later.

Grenzers were light troops originating in the Austrian borderlands, specializing in skirmish tactics. At Breslau, a number of these troops suddenly emerged from the woods on Brandes's right flank, intent on attacking his rear. In this they were bitterly opposed by the flank guard under Rohr.
