He learned that black powder was the first explosive used in cannon propelling charges and that it was made from three key ingredients: potassium nitrate, sulfur and charcoal.

The 1812 stats I think were used straight out of the the box, which obviously wasn't ideal for the raw armies of 1813 but then again most of the French seemed to be Guards! I'll take your word for it that OTH is a fine set of rules but we are all very happy with BP2 so having achieved consensus, and with most of the differing interpretation now clarified in the second volume, I think we'll stick with it!Sparkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07008013944950635778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845445937219070849.post-61176596246580866632018-12-06T04:47:45.673+11:002018-12-06T04:47:45.673+11:00Splendid as ever Sparker.
