Entering this terrain requires formed units to enter General Order. 4. Includes the Castillo de San Diego and the Shore Fortification in Santa Lucia. 5. Roads and trails negate the movement cost of the terrain they cross provided the hexes are connected by a road or trail and the

units are in Road Column. 6. Cost is in addition to the cost of the other terrain in the hex being entered and is only applied when crossing the terrain feature. 7. Cavalry is only permitted in these hexes if in Skirmish Order. In Skirmish Order they use the value to the right of the slash to

cross a Wall or a Sunken Road. 8. Cavalry and artillery may only cross the Rampart through the gate. See E4.8.

1. For infantry battalions in Skirmish Order in two hexes with more than 6 increments, the extra increments (greater than 3/hex) are ignored. Cavalry units in Skirmish Order, regardless of increments, are always deployed in two hexes. References to units in two hexes apply only to the Règlements de l’An XXX.

2. Units in Skirmish Order may move through other units or have other units move through them, but they may never remain stacked with other units.

3. For the Règlement de l’An XXX only 4 increments of cavalry may stack per hex while in Column of Companies formation. 4. When stacked with infantry, one Increment of artillery is equal to 6 Increments of infantry. 5. Cavalry and artillery may traverse these hex types at the cost indicated if the hexsides they enter and exit from are crossed by a road

or trail, but may not remain in this hex type at the end of their movement. 6. Includes the Castillo de San Diego and the Shore Fortification in Santa Lucia. 7. Two Increments of dismounted dragoons count as 1 Increment of infantry for stacking purposes. NOTE: Only one ship may stack in a Sea or Port hex.

DEPOT LOCATIONS

French: The road off the southern map edge. British: Any road that connects to Corunna.

NAVAL COMMITMENT CHART At any time a French unit is within 10 hexes of the Castille de San Diego, or the village of Santa Lucia, the British player rolls to determine what naval support will be received. Any action needed to activate the fleet will be determined by this roll.

RESULT DIE ROLL Abandonment: Commodore Hood decides that the harbor is in danger and sorties the fleet, leaving the Britsh Army to fight on alone. The British Player cannot use evacuation conditions (E9.9).

11-16

Anchor: The warships remain at anchor. There is no Royal Navy support, but the fleet stands ready to embark the troops. Transports may still move to the embarkation hexes. Re-roll on the next hour on the Naval Commitment Chart.

21-36

Contrary Winds: The fleet does not have the wind and cannot make sail. There is no Royal Navy support, but the fleet stands ready to embark the troops. Transports may embark units, but may not move. Re-roll on the next hour on the Naval Commitment Chart.

41-46

Minor Support: Commodore Hood decides to allow a squadron to support the army. Roll one die and halve it (rounding up) to determine the number of ships-of-the-line tasked to support the army. Ships-of-the-line to support the army are selected randomly. Transports move normally.

51-62

Major Support: Commodore Hood decides to allow the fleet to support the army. Roll one die to determine the number of ships-of-the-line tasked to support the army. The British Player may select the ships-of-the-line to support the army. Transports move normally.

63-66

CONDITION MODIFIER Evacuation Declared +9 General Moore in Corunna +3 French Artillery on Point Castillo de San Diego -6 Death of General Moore -9 NOTE: Results from the Naval Commitment Chart superseded all other actions. If British Evacuation has been declared and the Naval Commitment Chart roll is abandonment then the evacuation immediately ceases and regular scenario victory conditions apply.

Any units embarked on naval transports leave with the fleet and are not considered eliminated for morale purposes.
