So reviewing the FB group and re-reading the rules I worked out a few errors/ things I got right.

1 Bring all supports into the combat even those facing off.

2 Columns use 1CD not inferior volley (that was GdA1).

3 I was correct in that skirmishers screening infantry against artillery will be the target for them once within 20cm (with cannister bounce through). However when the columns charge through them of course the artillery shoot the columns in the combat phase.

I also determined the unit size for infantry I shall use in future. 4 bases of 40mm or 6 of 30mm for standard and add an extra rank in column for large. Cavalry I will think more on: 3 or 4 for standard sized. 40mm.

I do like GdA2. I am thinking about making some skirmisher sabot bases next. Maybe paint up some more Austrians! I found some bags hidden in a box.
