Members gain points and promotions through fighting battles, win or loose.Promotions may also be awarded based on a commanding officers personal knowledge of an officer under command performance and recommendation by the Corps/Divisional Commanders.Those members who keep their Commanding Officer informed and stay active in the club will be on the fast track. Promotions will be primarily based on quality of play,leadership,and total points ,with a strong emphasis on quality of play and leadership.Other criteria for consideration of promotion are as follows:

All members start at the lowest rank for their assigned army.

 The Talonsoft games don't fairly represent these facts. They allow the player to stand on the field to the last man, if he so desires. The General in the past never had this option. If he made a big mess of it early, he rarely got the chance to clean it up later. The troops would have made this impossible.

Full Scale Battles

A Major victory can be declared when one side has lost at least 10,000 men, and the second side has lost 2.5 times more, regardless of the number of turns remaining. The loser's army has lost confidence in it's leadership and routed.

1. or if his enemy has left the field or surrendered, or withdrawn from the contest for any other reason.
2. or if the enemy army's commander is captured. (specifically Blucher, Kutuzov, Napoleon, or Wellington)

Minor victory. One side has lost at least 9,000 men and the other has lost at least 2 times as much. The loser has realized that he has been beaten, and must withdraw.

Small Battles

2. Additional bonus points can be won or lost by the CAPTURE of REGIMENTAL standards, artillery batteries, and Officers. A standard is considered the elimination of an entire REGIMENT from the game. It is the players responsibility to keep track and the opponent must agree with the number of standards and artillery captured.

• a) inf. standards: 2pts each
• b) cav. Standards: 3 pts
• c) artillery batteries: 3 pts each
• d) guard inf standards: 4 pts
• e) quard artillery batteries: 6 pts
• f) guard cav. stnadards: 6pts
• g) Colonels Anonymous: 1 pt. each
• h) Generals and Marshalls: 3 points each
• i) Blucher, Kutuzov, Napoleon, or Wellington, instant major victory plus 100 pts.

3. Points = Victory Level + standards/artillery/leaders captured

Example: major victory +1 inf standard +2(1Gd) artillery batteries captured = 30+ 11 = 41 points.Note: no bonus points will be rewarded for artillery destroyed by ranged fire.
