Orb question

Post by Scrumpy »

Can a unit form orb if it is in the restricted zone of an enemy unit ? DOes this change if it is in the zones of 2 or more units ?

A BG can't contract in a restricted area. If the BG is already 2 wide there is no need to contract to form Orb.

Sadly they were 4 wide, so had real problems with chariots & spearmen all around them. The joys of pursuing units you break in melee...

Strangely enough almost exactly the same discussion is going on in the rules forum

viewtopic.php?t=13213

Perhaps best to continue there?
