Added a link to pdf from author Hervé Caille outlining the changes in V4.
Added the official V4 QRS.
Added Game Setup QRS (pdf). This covers steps that you only do once; unlike the game QRS. Includes terrain choices & deployment; terrain adjustment; troop deployment; rivers & flank marches.
Updated Game Setup QRS after some clarifications via the ADLG forum.
Updated Game Setup QRS after further clarification via the ADLG forum.
Corrected Game Setup QRS after spotting two minor errors.
Updated: added a link to the results of the overview of the 2022 ADLG (UK) Survey.
Updated: the link to the V4 Army lists and V3 equivalents has been changed to a better list.
New Errata released for V4.
Updated: added a link to a simplified table of combat factors.
New pdf added collating & summarising all the various movement options in ADLG V4. This is a revised version of that I produced for V3.
Added a link to my 2021 post discussing tournament theme boundaries and the difference between setting them by date or ADLG period.
Added a link to a table comparing complex movement options (pdf).
The movement and complex movement sheets will be very useful additions. I get to play ADLG nowhere near enough, if I did, this stuff would all be ingrained and easy to remember, as it is, it's open up the rule book numerous times in a game. I'm just lucky we play DBMM even less!
Even my regular opponent, who plays far more often than I do, has confessed he fails to remember which movement combinations are allowed and which aren't. We all need help.
Updated link to the latest set of errata; the first since 2022!
Updated the "Game Setup" pdf with one small change to clarify that Coasts must be diced for when chosen not when placed.
