Pursuits at the same time

Post by titanu »

In the photo above both light horse have broken their opponents and will pursue in the direction of the measuring stick. The top unit with darker bases would hit the second pursuing unit in the flank if they moved first. It was just a flank attack which is not obvious from the picture.

We could not find anything in the initial pursuit or pursuing in the JAP to cover this situation. So the only thing we could do was to move both units their pursuit and ignore the other pursuing unit :shock: . Do the team agree?

Or is the order of pursuit moves decided by the active player ?

putting the arg into argumentative, except for the lists I check where there is no argument!

Page 178. "The active player chooses which side goes first within a step if it matters but is not specified otherwise in the rules."
