10. Cavalry that pass a CMT can either move 2MU and turn 180 or turn 180 and move 2MU or turn 180 move 2MU and turn back 180.
11. Dragoons when making any move, including evade, starting or ending within 6MU of the enemy may make a full dragoon mounted move if they pass a CMT. Dragoons who make such a move may shoot as carbines (range andPOA). They are assumed to be firing from horseback or to have dismounted so quickly that they cannot shoot as effectively.

We will use one new rule revision as per current OWS FOGR Sunday events

12. For foot, other than LF or dragoons, to enter the flank sector at all a CMT will be required. To make any movement other than those required by the rules while in the flank sector, even if only partly in or to leave the sector, will require a CMT. Once a CMT has been failed in a given bound no further CMTs may be attempted that bound.

Note two specific army amendments:

1) Swedish salvo muskets may not fire at long range, but their regimental guns may still fire at 6MU. 
2) From 1592 Japanese Samurai and Ashigaru teppo troops with ‘arquebus’ can alternatively fire as bow at short or long range if 1 extra point is paid. This is to reflect mixed formations; all or none.

13. games each of 2.5 hours

11. Army lists should be E-mailed to List Checker no later than 25h April 2024.
