213 Borodino - Raevski Redoubt (7 September 1812)

The Semenovka Stream is fordable stream. The stream does not stop infantry movement nor does it cause any battle restrictions for infantry units.

this should be carefully read as;

The Semenovka Stream is fordable RIVER. The Stream does not stop infantry movement nor does it cause any battle restrictions for infantry units.

We've been plaing it last friday.
So the limitations (move and battle) occured for CAV and ART.

The new Tacticians cards can have quite an impact on this scenario

"The Semenovka Stream is fordable stream. The stream does not stop infantry movement nor does it cause any battle restrictions for infantry units."

Does this mean that infantry still receive the -1 battle dice MODIFIERS for combat into/out of the stream, or is this also negated? We always played that the combat modifiers still held, but in Paris everyone was playing that there would be no minuses to the battle dice for infantry.

Methinks folks were getting their modifications and restrictions intertwined.

I've understood "battle restrictions" to include die modifiers, but I grant it isn't actually defined.

The Ligny FAQ has a similar case, and whilst a battle restriction of taking ground is discussed (and allowed), die modifiers aren't referenced.

So in short, I don't know for sure.

Russian victory 7-10. The French lacked the cards to maneuver on the right. A bayonet assault against the Russian artillery on the left flank ended in a bloodbath for the French infantry.

French victory 10-5. This time the French had the cards to maneuver on the left and they essentially played the whole game on that side, capturing two redoubts, pushing the Russians back. The Russian player sent reinforcements from the central section, but they were insufficient in strength and numbers.
