Summary
The plan was to move up to the half way point and pin him there, so he could not move into my half..Well that was the plan, it didn't feel like it was going that way some times in the game….
I think the Red Corsairs list I’m using at the moment, needs to have formation or two that have a longer shooting range, max was 30cm..
I don’t believe any of the Red Corsairs units are over powered or under powered and after few games I have not found any glaring issue with army structure or units.

Greg
