Interpenetration and expansion

[marshalney2000]

We have been having a healthy debate on this and wonder are the following legal:
can lf expand then move through another unit?
Thanks in advance

Assuming you are referring to normal legal interpenetrations (eg LF moving through any other unit) then yes this is legal.

It does need to be remembered that all expansions happen prior to moving, but apart from that - yes. Why wouldn't they be?

[nikgaukroger]

I'm with Dave - why would you think they wouldn't be able to?

[JimmyThePict]

But what if the expansion of the interpenetrating unit would cause the expanded base to be in the interpenetrated unit before it moved?
e.g. if the unit (LF) was at an angle behind the unit it wanted to interpenetrate but very close to it?

[nikgaukroger]

Which is a different question to the one asked and, I think, the answer is no you cannot do that as the expansion isn't a move passing through friendly troops.

You can expand and go through with any legal expansion at the beginning of a move; you cannot expand onto another BG.
