Number of Bases Shooting

A BG of 8 x MF, Bw 2 ranks deep are just under 6 MU's from a target battle group directly to their front. How many dice are used for shooting? What I am trying to establish is if the second rank of Bw are not being penalised for being out of effective range AND for being a rear rank.

Mounted Infantry

The Assyrian test list specifies Mounted Infantry (Kallapani). I can't find anything in the rules about how they should be based or how they move. Have I missed something?

Flank March Arrival

What happens if a flank march is driven back and is therefore forced to arrive within 12MU's from its base table edge but cannot due to impassable terrain?

Classification of Troops

Hi

Has anyone an idea of what an Avar RCv(S) should be classified as in FOG? I have assumed Cavalry, Superior, Armoured, Drilled, Lance, Bow*, Sword. Also what would a Middle Assyrian RBd(F) become and would the LF supports be the same quality?

1. Yes. 2. Yes. 3. Yes. 4. No. The chariots chose to continue to pursue. Bases in contact were removed from the pike battle group. The chariot on the left of the battlegroup was still in contact with a pike when it was charged by the knights. We played it as you have stated but were not sure if this...

I have played 4 games all with a major victory result. All 4 games were finished in between 3 and 4 hours. I feel that I can achieve a result in less time than I was able to in DBM.

All these games were between the same opponents who have a similar lack of knowledge of the rules.

Hi There Why could the contacted BG not conform to the charging BG? In Lawrence's example a BG in an 8 deep column is hit on the rear elements side by a LH BG. In the melee phase the LH BG conforms to the front of the BG in column. What if the following occured instead? In the Impact phase the LH el...
