Has anyone tried these rules? If so you might be able to explain a conundrum. The Special Rules for Natives and Cavalry state that they "May not use Fire Action" and yet both troop types have a Firing value and a Range. Is it a typo or have I missed something?

They need to use the 'skirmish' action to be able to fire.

Fining him is a bit harsh isn’t it?

And pointless, because he'd just give me some of my ex toys back.

Thanks for that Paul, makes sense as they might be a bit too good otherwise. Pity they didn't make it clear in the rules though.
