A mistake made in FF seems less likely to have long-lasting impact than RFF. Perhaps, this increased choice and more impact descends directly from the game level?<br /><br />In FF, often the best tactic is to charge, especially if Confederate. That tactic will produce a bloody nose quickly in RFF. If advancing against artillery, my suggestion is to think twice and prepare.<br /><br />In many of our RFF games, casualties are quite lopsided. We are still discussing whether that is due to our game play or the rules, themselves. Fire combat rarely leaves combatants unscathed. Artillery is much more potent in RFF. Breakthrough charges are infrequent compared to FF.<br /><br />My opinion (only) is that RFF is a better game than the original.<br /><br />Scott, have we even played the original since RFF's release?Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-89326170227256752852013-03-08T16:43:20.116-08:002013-03-08T16:43:20.116-08:00I think it's the best rules system I have ever...I think it's the best rules system I have ever played. It's detailed enough to satisfy my inner history nerd, yet playable enough to move along very quickly.<br /><br />Now I just need to stop charging everything in sight.

There's talk about doing Longstreet this summer. We're thinking we'll base so we can port the Longstreet armies over to Fire and Fury. A big multiplayer event would be a treat.
