Variant Tactics Tables for playing the American Revolution Series Solitaire by Joel Toppen Reprinted from C3i #22 For each combat situation, follow the flowchart to the right step-by-step to determine which Tactics Table to use. The Tactics Tables, printed on the other side will require the use of a 6-sided die (D6), an 8-sided die (D8), and a 10-sided die (D10). The Battles of the American Revolution series games include a D10, so players will need to provide their own D6 and D8 dice. Some of the tests will require the player to make a “judgement call.” Do what you would do if you were the player using those units in a two player game. Example: would you consider using a Withdraw chit? If so then choose “Withdraw plausible.” Once a Tactics Table has been selected, roll the appropriate dice and consult the Table to determine what tactic that side will use. You may use this solitaire system to choose tactic chits for both sides in combat. Engage without a Leader? ? Withdraw plausible? use Table 1 ?
