    @Universal Head: I watched your Let’s Play of Joan of Arc. Thanks for that!

    One central thing that is very unclear in the rules and has only been clarified in the FAQ is that “commanded” units cannot take part in the current activation if moved into the activated area. I.e. you can can’t command a unit to move into your area and then move it out with the Move action (or attack with it). From the FAQ:

    Can a unit benefit from an Order placed in an area if it unit is brought into the activated area by a Command action?

    Answer: No, it cannot. A Command happens before or after a unit’s ACTION, not before its activation. Hence, if a unit moves into an area containing an Order, then the unit won’t be able to be activated by that Order. The Order has already been given for this area.

    Might be a nice thing to mention on the Rules summary too!

    Interested in any more comments on what you played wrong? 😉

    Sure, bring ’em on. You know us, we get rules wrong all the time!

    I had a vague feeling we might be getting the command rules a bit wrong. Better luck next time!

    If one game will make you get the rules wrong, it’s this one! 😀 We played many things wrong in our first games as well (and probably still do). That said, this is what I noticed:

    – range for shooting attacks (both direct and indirect) is in hexes, not in areas. Yes, those archers on a hill can shoot far!
    – civilians leave the map once you’ve talked to them.
    – cavalry units can move two areas and still attack with a charge order.
    – you played the “Heavy bombard” intrigue option for the English correct, though the rules actually say you can use intrigue options only on your own turn (unless otherwise stated), which would make the bombard useless. See here. Just to clarify because we agonized over this for a while. 😀

    Thanks Ralf! Do you mind if I copy all that over to YouTube?

    What I wanted to ask: What do you use to texturize your bases? I found my usual method of using bird sand and static grass to not match the 15mm scale and switched to using a Vallejo texture paste instead.

    I use the Games Workshop Astrogranite and Astrogranite Debris. Perfect.

    I am.

    I am still really enjoying the game, despite the few warts (which I think they will address).

    Peace
