Re: Lancers and POAs

It's not correct. Mounted troops with LIght Spear only get a + POA at impact only if no other net POA's ie other POAs cancel. So, against HF spearmen the POA's do not cancel and so the mounted will be on a minus POA, light spear does not count. Against MF spearmen during the impact the mounted can g...

Re: Amendments to V3?

There might still be some life in the Dodo. Either that or I must have mis-read the notifications for all the tournaments where FoG AM is being played.

V3.1 Expand & Move

I can't remember if this has already been mentioned.

Expand and Move - "other undrilled with a commander":
In the rules this is "impossible"
On the QR sheet it is a "complex move"

We assumed the main body rules override QR sheet. Correct?

Re: 3.1 - Wot no Eastern Woodland Culture?

One list should be able to do the trick, but with the way the South Eastern list was unfairly and unreasonably butchered I don't think it would be much use.
The way the list has ended up, only a lunatic would try to use them.

I see the South-Eastern Woodland Culture.
Is that it?

Re: MF : too low and too expensive (go to 3.5)

Was that before the rules were changed for those who don't like their cavalry to lose against infantry, are too idle to even consider changing the way they play so whinged and whined about it?

V3.1 and Bw*

Have I missed something hidden in the depths of the V3.1 rules or the list of changes/errata about Bw* foot? I ask because it looks very much like Bw* will be the only infantry that do not get support shooting when charged. It's in the V3.1 rules in Support Shooting in the Impact Phase. "The su...

Re: Propositions de changement de la V3.

It seems pretty much to be a ghost forum.
As a user of MF I quite like your proposal for moving terrain. In wide open spaces, MF would just not fight.

Re: Charging Without Orders

Contract by one base to pass friendly troops etc, NOT to avoid hitting enemy.
Seems logical and adequately written on page 52.
Stop the pedantry and either charge or roll the dice not to.
No wonder players are leaving FoG.

Re: Internal Overlaps

I think Yes, it's an overlap.
If the LH were in contact with the flank of the base fighting the knights it wouldn't be.
The right hand edge of your BG extends all the way to the enemy knights even though the bases are facing in two directions.

Drop a base.
