Greetings!
Looking at trying our first game of HoW this Sat., and we decided on the Combat of Strehla scenario. We played this scenario using another set of rules, and decided we wanted to play it again, so we could compare how it went.
Thinking how the game might go, I have a couple of questions.
Since entrenchments are impassible to cavalry (page 15 under linear obstacles), the Reichsarmee cavalry on the Austro-Imperial right flank cannot charge the Prussian infantry/artillery in/behind the entrenchments on the Strehla hill (i.e. it’s not that they could do it and not get the Cavalry Charging bonus, they just can’t do it), right?
So can they support the Reichsarmee infantry in a charge on those enthrenchments? It doesn't appear to me to be prohibited.
If they can't support, they are totally useless where they are over on the right flank, other than to deter the Prussians from sallying forth I suppose…
Thanks,
Dave
