Orde de Mix

The Seven Years’ War was fought across the globe and called by some the first “World War” as virtually every major power participated. In the center of events was Prussia, almost constantly at war and lead by the now legendary Frederick the Great.

Relive the exciting and trying days of Frederick the Great in Horse and Musket: Volume I, the improved and expanded combination of the previous Prussian War Machine and Prussia’s Glory titles. Horse and Musket: Volume I is a reboot of the successful Horse and Musket series, including not only two solid historical titles in one package, but also many new game features, a powerful new editor, and a complete graphics overhaul to an already acclaimed gaming system.

Will this game have a mixed order formation? The famous "column-line-column" formation, except for late war scenario's when the French didn't use it anymore due to decrease in infantry skill level.

I may be remembering incorrectly, but I think this was mentioned many months ago as being in the game. Surely this game is approaching release.

I thought L'Order de Mix was a Chandlerism and that really Regiments would form whichever and whatever formations were appropriate for the situation. There really weren't regimental infantry formations in the same sense that Battalions had them.

At the scale of this game, you would put a column in one hex, a line in the next and a column in the next.  Mixed Order.
