Unit Size: Mounted cannot be over 12 figures and are removed if broken and less then 4 figures.

Mixed Armor: Counts as heavy armor until 1/4 casualties inflicted count as light armor until 1/2 casualties, no armor for remaining. If engaged on flank, the BEST count is light armor. If engaged in rear, always counts as no armor. Note that the Spanish do not have this option, the newly discovered Americas provided Spain with so much wealth that they were able to afford large, well equipped & trained, regular armies.

Pike Phalanx: -1 to hit from front in hand to hand or shooting with arrows/crossbows. Can march forward, turn 180, or wheel (without marching). Drilled pike can reform and turn as desired. Required rank bonus (of PIKES) at least +1 and at least 16 pikemen. Cannot lap around in combat, but can expand frontage to fit.

Attachments: Are part of physical pike/Bill unit - they occupy either the front rank or the rear rank. Fighting/shooting is always against parent unit. Defender can apply hits as he wishes, with the pikes taking more hits than either attachment. (Wounds are determined once applied to the unit or attachments.) A front attachment will not stop pikes from attacking with two ranks. Attachments cannot have standards or leaders. They don't have leadership tests independent from their parent unit.

• Front Attachments: Front rank attachments with missile weapons can fire (in the shooting phase) at enemy engaged to the front in hand to hand at no risk of hitting friends. Such fire will not cause panic checks. Front rank attachments can run between the pikes and attack opponents in hand to hand. This is combined with the front two ranks of pike attacks. These can be wings of shot or bow.
• Rear Attachments: Back rank & can be used to lap around enemy. Not more than 1/4 number of pikes. If lapping around a pike unit the defender's phalanx bonuses do not apply to the lapping models.

Tercio: Originally a Spanish formation. Large squares of pikes, surrounded by Shot. Originally there must be at LEAST 25 pikes, with enough Shot to surround formation. Cannot march move. The unit has no flanks or rear.

Caracole: Pistoleers in front rank fire all their pistols, then retire to rear & reload while back ranks move forward to fire. Required at least two nearly equal ranks & 3" room on at least one side to perform this maneuver. Allows front rank of pistoleers to fire twice as long as the unit does not move.

Pistol: Range 6", S4, and -1 to the armor save. Characters can use pistols in hand to hand, in addition to a normal hand weapon.

Arquebus/Musket/Handgunne: The Shot of this era were superior to the very early handgunne of the late middle ages. I've deviated from the handguns, and I am allowing the arquebus to move or shoot, but can shoot each round Range is 24", S4, and -2 to the armor save. Handgunne is 18" S4 -1 to armor save. Musket can move 4"and shoot 24",S4 -2 to Armor Saves.
