When faced with the same group of opponents over time in many different situations, player tendencies can be qualified. In some instances, breaking your opponent's morale early in the game can lead to victory even when the opponent's game pieces may hold the advantage.<br /><br />Which is easier: to know thy self or thy opponent?

Like you pointed out, sometimes the my morale breaks before the troops!Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-38421361733124648312012-12-10T17:02:52.026-08:002012-12-10T17:02:52.026-08:00You are not alone in thinking the British were on ...You are not alone in thinking the British were on the verge of collapse. The situation was quite dismal. The British commander's morale (the player's morale not the figure's) was nearing the breaking point as the natives kept applying pressure and hitting his militia again and again. British grenadiers were likewise hit hard by French volley fire.<br /><br />But, the success of the rangers and light infantry gave the British commander a new lease on life. Those successes formed the basis for a complete turn-around in the game.<br /><br />Appreciate your comments.<br /><br />Jon <br /><br />Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-27971597066775996722012-12-10T15:13:41.299-08:002012-12-10T15:13:41.299-08:00Battle looks great and the report very fun to read...Battle looks great and the report very fun to read!
