6. ICONIC COMMANDERS

This expansion presents a preview and a taste of possible Iconic Commander actions that are coming in the future Iconic Commanders & Leaders of Honor expansion.
A scenario Battle Notes will indicate when an Iconic Commander is in command at this battle. For example, the French Army Commander Napoleon will have (Iconic) following his name.
Note: In this expansion, the number of Iconic Actions are modified and limited.

French - When Napoleon is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, because of his ability to devise a battle plan, the French player will draw one additional Command card at the start of a battle, and after reviewing all the cards, choose one card to discard before the start of the battle.
When Napoleon is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, because of his excellent grasp and flow of a battle, after the play of one or more Scout Command cards, the French player, when drawing two new Command cards, can keep both cards and discard one Command card from his hand.

British - When Wellington is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, because of his keen eye and use of terrain, the British player prior to the battle may redeploy up to 4 hexes of units. For Example: One unit could redeploy up to 4 hexes or two units 2 hexes each or four units 1 hex each, or other combinations.

Prussian - When Blücher is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, he commands that the enemy is to be given “No Quarter”. Therefore, when an enemy unit is forced to retreat, the Prussian player may spend one Iron Will counter and eliminate one of the retreating unit’s blocks. Note: This action could eliminate the enemy unit.

Austrian - When Archduke Charles or Archduke John is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, any three Austrian line infantry units are considered Hungarian line infantry and are deployed before battle with 5 blocks and a Hungarian +1 marker which remains with each unit until the last unit block is removed. Each Austrian unit with the +1 marker battles with 1 extra die in all Ranged and Melee combats.

Russian - When Kutuzov is the scenario’s Iconic CIC, all Mother Russia dice rolls before the battle by the CIC or Corps Commanders are increased by one die.
