Page 98 of the rulebook define support shooting. I run EAP and wanted to know if my second row of bow counts as support shooting in impact.

Thanks,

Hans Jansen.

yes

... if receiving a charge.

Si

......unless in flank or rear

..or in a forest.

...or plantation

and I'll raise you a Village

Does it count on a Thursday when there is a "Y" in the month and the last dice roll was cocked?

So you've folded then Hammy.

Argh you cheated ... I had already checked there were two others so I could have the last one .. no fair taking 2 in one go !!

I think that's it so will have to fold also.

Si

There is another future possible. If Samurai are based 30mm deep and are Bow armed (not Bw*)
If the Samurai front rank just, by a gnats todger, enters a gully and is then charged the rear rank shooters will not be able to see the charging troops, being more than 1 MU away.

This is nothing to do with immortals, and is dependant upon the umpires interpretation of the visibility and shooting rules, and how samurai are classified. Thats why I thought I'd mention the village first.

Rear rank shooters are treated as shooting from the front rank yes? Later Crusaders with mixed XBow BGs shoot from the spear base yes?

yes
