1776 - Does the game feel right to you?

[Steel God]

To clarify, what scenario are you using? In the latest edition of the game with the 1.11 version update, there are multiple variants of the battle from several different designers. A couple of them with the "historical" moniker. At least one of these variants uses the "Alternative" PDT:

"The primary difference that players will note between the original PDT file and the optional alternate PDT file is that the alternate file will produce significantly higher casualties in certain circumstances."

So, it could very well be a matter of which PDT file is being used and the fire values for the weapons included...

Hey Rich, we're playing the Bunker Hill A Scenario, which is listed as Historical.  I only see one Bunker Hill PDT file so I thing it is the "standard".  We are playing with phased play if that could have an impact, and also quality fire modifiers, which surely must contribute in regards to the British Grenadiers and Light Infantry Companies. 

While I have you, can you tell me what the "Cornwallis Cannon" Optional Rule does?  I can't seem to find a reference for it in the Manual. 

Thanks for your time.
