Situation at the end of turn six |
I turn the wildcard 6 into 3, and then the artillery fire at the French who have crossed the river, their two dice being increased by two for firing at short range. I roll 6, 2 and two 1s, reducing the French unit to two-strength.
Sir John Moore ascends the hill to be in position to support three friendly units. The infantry in area 5 advance obliquely left.
The French are running out of time to kill Sir John before the end of turn 10 |
The three-strength infantry in area 3 advance and fire at the British unit in Elviña (chosen by tiebreak for the target being further up the map than the three-strength unit next to Sir John). The four dice are decreased for moving, for firing from a river hex and for the target being in cover. The result is 1.
The other infantry in area 3 advance along the river, but cannot fire as their two dice are decreased for being in a river hex and for firing after moving.
Keeping the British compact has worked so far |
