Reply To: Rules for SYW Horse artillery

[grizzlymc]

Much is made in many rule sets of the Horse Artillery “Action move”, much of that, I suspect, inspired by watching the RHA doing precisely that in Hyde Park. I have rarely read of such movement, although the limber up and get the hell out of here bit seems common in rearguard actions, perhaps most famously by Ramsay’s troop at Fuentes d’onoro. Mercer may have done a bit on the retreat from Waterloo, it’s 45 years since I read his diary.

For 7YW, can you find out about how horse artillery was actually deployed in action, preferably from first person accounts?
