Forming a square is effectively treated as an outcome, rather than a command choice. But you don't "put a unit into square" like you do in other rules. This makes the infantry's morale state and training the key determinants of the outcome, rather than the formation.JWHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01637785437909299947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558350314928035506.post-51379717965478755422016-10-06T15:34:40.759+01:002016-10-06T15:34:40.759+01:00Hi can squares be formed using the rules?

Thank you for all the effort.In recent weeks I have been trying to streamline these rules a bit and iron out a few of the wrinkles but I am not sure I have improved them so I might go back to as written.
