MK02 Casilinum (Capua) (554 AD)

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
During the later stages...

MK02 Casilinum (Capua) (554 AD)

I take the 3rd Special Rule to mean the Heavy and Medium Cavalry units, but not the Heavy and Medium foot units

Yes of course, should be edited on the page.

How does the starting Line Command work for the Franks? Do they find a Line Command from the deck and then randomly draw their four other starting cards?

In real game, they should find the card and take it to hand and only draw randomly the remaining 4 (so they have 5 in hand).
In Vassal they already start with Line Command in hand.

I should have asked this also. They start with a Line Command in hand, but they I assume they do not have to play it on their first turn. 

Also, I do not see this scenario listed in the Gothic War section. Where can I download the scenario?

Thank you,

John

Hi John,
the scenario should be as part of Vassal module (I believe it was added).

As for the rules - I will cite Mr. Borg - apply the rules literally So Franks have hand of 5 and start the game with Lien Command. Nothing more, nothing less.

So they do not need to play this card in first round; there is no obligation - you can even keep it to the end of game.

as a tempoirary expedient whilst I update the module file, please find attached a game save of the scenario for use.
