Uncovered charge targets
Yesterday browsing through the listing I found a thread about uncovered charge targets but can not find it now. Could you confirm or not the following that happen last night.

When the evaders move the new target becomes a vaild one. You only roll a VMD if all of your targets evade so the answer to your question is that if the revealed BG is within normal move there is no VMD. If there are no targets within normal move after the evade then there is a VMD which may result in contacting an enemy BG further away than your normal move.

Evaders always roll a variable move.
This could uncover a fresh target in normal charge reach. If this is troops capable of evading they do so before the chargers variable move, rolling a vmd for themselves.
If the chargers then have nothing within their normal charge move that has not evaded from them they roll a vmd.
If they have targets within their charge reach that have evaded from them they roll a vmd.
This is the confusing bit. What if a BG that has evaded from a different charge is within their normal charge reach. Do the chargers still roll a vmd or just clunk the unfortunates who do not get to evade again.

Unfortunates: Hey we are being charged, we had better run away
First chargers: Bother they ran fast didn't they
Second chargers: See those other not so unfortunate enemy?
Second chargers: Chaaaarge - hang on a minute, where did those unfortunates come from??
Unfortunates: I don't mean to worry you guys but we appear to be running into a bit of bother here

And it allways counts as a flank/rear charge.hammy wrote:They just clunk the unfortunates who do not get to evade again.philqw78 wrote:This is the confusing bit.
