Empire is going to be a slightly different beast than what has gone before.

Here are a few things to remember. Some we know and some may be new to some of us.

_____________________________________________________________________

If the enemy is in range, so are you

If your attack is going well, you have walked into an ambush

The enemy invariably attacks on one of two occasions
a. When you're ready for them.
b. When you're not ready for them.

If you find yourself in a fair fight, you didn't plan your mission properly

No plan ever survives first contact with the enemy.

__________________________________________________________________________________

Use available cover and concealment

Use movement by bounds when practical to close with the enemy. Use stationary unit in overwatch position to engage the enemy.(one unit engage the enemy while the other moves)

Skirmishers should have a ready reserve (deploy them two deep)

Keep a reserve when possible. It allow greater flexibility.

A charge is used to brake the enemy, if this is not working you my want to review your options.

If you are in a safe or hidden position, there is the ever popular; don’t shoot until you see the whites of their eyes.
