Have you gotten an opponent yet? If not, I'll take the challenge. I have all the titles in HPS and BG except Leipzig and will play big or small scenarios. I have two house rules that I prefer not to play without:
1) Skirmishers must stay within 3 hexes of any battalion in the parent formation (i.e. the formation that lights up when you toggle the button). If they become separated, they must attempt to move directly back to a 3 hex range by the shortest possible route. If this is not possible, they may seek shelter in the nearest terrain (i.e. orchard, woods, building, village, etc...) and stay there until they can. They may not melee or overrun enemy units/leaders/supplies until they are within 3 hexes again.
2) Players cannot retreat units off the map unless they are routed, or the player is currently at a draw or worse. (Obviously, this does not apply to scenarios with up's for moving off the map).
All other optional rules and house rules are negotiable I play with this rule to prevent skirmishers from acting like suicide commandos.
If this is acceptable to you, then send your messenger (email) with the game and scenario you would like to play, and I will choose the side, or I can select the scenario and you choose sides.
