 I vote for this too, I think it's fair to armies with less firepower.

 Sounds good.

 Have orders been done already?
 What about being able to give a fall back order to out of command
 troops? (I posted about it some days ago) I think fall back orders
 should be voluntary also, as in Adeptus Titanicus. Troops on fall
 back would have to move away from the enemy at charge rate, would
 not be able to shoot and enemies shooting at them would get -1 to hit.
 Opinions?
 This of course would bring up the question of the difference in
 voluntarily giving the order and failing a morale check. The easiest
 way would be to use a different counter for routed troops, which
 have to take a morale test in order to get rid of the fall back.

 One thing at a time I think. :)
