Marlburian Period 1700-1715 Rule Amendments Cadence marching: All nations regiment stand based infantry except Prussia is counted as poorly drilled regulars. Non-Cadence Poorly Drilled Troops: Troops defined as being poorly drilled require a complete turn to change facing and may not move. Platoon fire: All nations regiment stand based infantry except British, Dutch, Prussian and Danish has only 3 fire dice when stationary. Pikes: Partly pike armed infantry such as Swedes and Russians do not get the -1 facing lancers. Partly pike armed troops receive an extra dice in melee, whether moving or stationary. Partly pike armed troops have one less fire dice, whether moving or stationary. Sweden: Infantry always count as morale 6 shock troops, guards as morale 7. Wooden ramrods: No effect represented, since all nations use them. Firearm cavalry: No fire ability. In melee count as lighter if weight would otherwise be equal. English, Dutch and Swedish horse (not dragoons): Always count as heavier than their opponents, weight for weight, due to faster charge. Mounted dragoons: May never get shock effect bonus. May never be better than morale 5 unless guards. Dismounted dragoons: May dismount as a poorly drilled regular infantry regiment counting as a formation change. Morale -1 when dismounted. Skirmishers (infantry and cavalry): All count as militia. Morale should never be higher than 3 or 4. Civilian artillery drivers: Once unlimbered, artillery battalions may not be moved, but may turn in place. It follows that if two artillery battalions are deployed bases touching, they may not turn.
