If they chose to, they could either run the show as a committee, or have one player (Lee and Meade) act as the Army Commander. The army commander would directly command some troops and the cards. If they wanted a subordinate to act, they would hand them their orders (a card) and let them decide how to move the troops. A fun idea, but most chose to rule by commitee. Everyone had fun, so I didn't try to force the issue. :)Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336147929636057123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520476390581424974.post-8596300253843941602011-04-11T08:39:25.094-07:002011-04-11T08:39:25.094-07:00A great looking game.

I saw your efforts on AlteFritzs blog, I'm always glad to see another Command & Colours enthusiast. <br /><br />We've been using 6mm figures for Battlecry and Memoir'44 for quite some time now, though I've recently moved into using 1/72 scale plastics for Napoleonics. You can see some of my early efforts below. <br /><br />http://joyandforgetfulness.blogspot.com/search/label/Leprecon<br /><br />Keep up the good work, <br /><br />ConradConrad Kinchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683395740934527502noreply@blogger.com
