There will be no use of the split hex rear charge move - to gain a rear-charge advantage when it isn't entitled . This has been confirmed as a bug.
Please make this clear to all players, playing, immediately.
This is in the rules and there is a possibility that some players may be using it. Thing is I can not find the ruddy link.
So a proper rear charge where you will drop an enemy battle group one cohesion level can only be done by a single move. You can not move a few hexes first and then be in a position to rear charge and so drop enemy bg a cohesion level. From your original position you would not be able to perform a rear charge (you can still do rear charges but it will not automatically affect the enemy unit) and moving a few hexes to be able to do so is illegal. Anybody using this will automatically have to forfeit the game so be very careful.
If anybody can find the link could you please include it with this post.
Please read the rules on "Season 9" link.
Cheers
Eric

Sorry to be thick but I don't understand this - if I can charge the rear I do so - I'm not aware of any sneaky way of seeking to gain an advantage (as my results bear voluble witness) - how do I know I am not transgressing?

As I reminds it, that were fixed in a patch. Even if you split the charge, i.e. move in stages, you will not get the automatic disruption. Perhaps someone else can confirm this.
Found this: Patch 1.8.0. - Fix: Bug related to rear charge issues.

I belive it was fixed in a patch but aren't sure.
Edit: Patch, version 1.8.0. - Fix: Bug related to rear charge issues.
I guess that must be it.

Div C
Flatsix518 (Early Achaemenid Persians) 16/42 vs Lydianed (Lydians) 51/49
Tougher, closer game than the score indicates. And it really didn't exactly go to plan, for me, either...

Definetly still happening as i was playing A1 Seleucids Vs Romans. Had Roman cav chase Skirmisher then change direction and hit Sup drilled Cataphract in rear dropped 2 cohesion levels to fragmented. So it aint fixed and A1 uses it aswell

I set the Cats up in this position so they couldnt be attacked in rear without change of direction and no way could be attacked to rear legitamatly.

hidde(Late Republican Roman) 27/41
Fedem(Later Carthaginian in Italy) 46/41
An uphill struggle if ever there was one. Practically the whole Carthaginian army sat perched on a small hill, 3 or 4 levels high.
Not much else than the tenacity of elite Roman legionaries could have managed to conquer such opposition!
