I am testing out some basics of the game re cohesion test and my understanding is that after taking more hits than you gave your unit must take a cohesion test. The result of the modified dice must be greater than 7 else the unit will drop a level.

I have attached a screenshot of a combat result where the attacker inflicted 3 hits and received 4. The attacker then roled 3 & 5 in the Cohesion test with - one for receiving 2 or more hits 3 + 5 - 1 = 7. This should cause a drop in cohesion level but as you will see from the screen print the new level is steady. I have a screenshot of this info but don't know how to post it in here.

What am I missing here? (besides a life)

A comprehensive manual from Slitherine?

<ducks>

From my understanding you need 7 or greater to pass.

Thanks PB..I was beginning to think that as I just passed another test with a net 7 result. I'm not sure why I bother to read the manual at all.

No idea if it helps dazzam but the quick ref sheet I did is on the fog wiki page for downloading.

Thanks Pete..I see it says 7 on that page..bit the % table there is consistent with an 8 being required..assuming no dice modifiers ie 2 hits etc

Have you looked at:

Thanks Keith.. I have looked at that but the part on cohesion tests is wrong..as it is in the in-game help. Cohesion tests seemed to be passed with a 7 or greater. Your link and the manual says a 7 will drop a cohesion level which is incorrect.

Kieth,
dazzam is correct. All the documentation is wrong and incorrectly states that you need greater than (>) 7 to pass a cohesion test. But in the game it appears you need 7 or greater to pass. Even the new documentation links you posted, contain this error. It appears the new documentation was merely reorganized and not updated or corrected.

This was changed to its current form several updates ago, largely in response to complaints about anarchy.

My understanding was that this was changed to a 7 for testing for anarchy charges..I did not think it had been changed for all cohesion tests but apparently it has.

It has always been 7 or greater to pass a cohesion test. This is the value in the TT rules and has been all along in the PC version. It is an error in the help that apparently hasn't been corrected yet.
