Just to get the full value of the argument...

The BG is being charged only once, but several BG's are charging it. (Is this like buying a round?)

And you are being charged more than once
True there are multiple causes for the CHT. But that's not sufficient for a -1. The -1 applies if " a BG must test for multiple breaks due to charges, or mulitple breaks or lost commanders at the end of the phase"

A fragged battle group is not testing for 'multiple breaks' due to charges. It can only break once; and the test for fragged receiving a charge is "if charged by enemy" - doesn't matter how many of them there are it's only one test.

If you had three fragged BGs charged by enemy you could have a situation where two break and one passes. The happy chap would then need another test an that would be at -1 because of the 'multple breaks'.

and then it depends on how the charges go off, will the lucky mini's roll first or last??? The tension is unbearable.
