I dont feel that the AWI is a totally different period, just used some different tactics. In the Napoleonic period we have added in extra rules to cover cossacks and grande bandes and such, but we still base these around a sound set of basic rules. I think the basic rules could also apply easily to the AWI with just an extra few rules added to cover the different goings on.

One thing that springs to mind is to maybe change the musketry table to include some smaller graduations i.e 1-5, 6-10, 11-15 or something as I think there were often quite small regiments and units fighting. But before I go on any more I'll go and look at the previous topic on this as I bet this has all been said before!

Did anyone see The Patriot on channel 5 the other night? A good typical Hollywood representation of the AWI if ever there was one! But a good film anyway and its rekindled my interest in the war.
