Lol doesnt almost everyone have that prob? Whats even more troublesome is when you move the line forward instead of a column in double rank and start rotating the line. The line would be a blob and a perfect target for my balls to get shot
The first modder for NW.

Any other regiments accomplished attacking a cannon with skirmishers before it has set itself up in an lb? Think the 52nd still holds that success as well as having the first cannon multikill lol. That and charging a group of lancers with line before it can move off its starting blocks in an lb ... yes surprising and charging lancers can happen in an lb.

Well each sort of pair of ranks, the front and back man, forms their own little groups and it becomes much like a sideways column, even being able to completely break the line and still form into it again. The trick is to always remember the man you were next to or behind.

We have something called the Indy formation, named after our loveable Indy. Basically the back rank just about faces and we proceed to fire (usually getting slaughtered in the process)
