Facing Arcs

Each Regiment has a front arc, a rear arc and two flank arcs. These become important when the Regiment wishes to shoot at an enemy, or when the Regiment charges into combat. To determine a Regiment’s arcs, extend a 45° degree line from each of the Regiment’s corners (Fig. 1.3). If the Regiment’s Stands are square, you can do this by tracing a straight line from the corner Stand’s inside back corner and extending it through its outside front corner.
