Order of March

Im feeling somewhat dense - I cant work out what is required here and how it interacts with the 4 deployment groups.

Is it
A - your bgs in order, that can then be shuffled into groups of 4 for deployment, and then deployed within those groups in the order of march (which seems pointless and complicated)
B - your bgs split into the 4 deployment groups
C - something else entirely

A

This is so that ifg you ambush or flank march you can easily say....so now its 13 BGs on table which is 4-3-3-3 to deploy and put them down in order even if 1/2/3 are off table. (i'e' you woul;d put 4/5/6/7 down first in this case)

that makes sense - at least more sense than my version A

it could probably do with an example in the rules

I wrote a post to say that Simon's explanation was incorrect, then I checked the rules and it is correct - I have been playing it wrong.

Concerning Order of March, when placing the BGs from each deployment block do they have to be deployed together or can they be deployed anywhere?
Cannot seem to finad anything stated they have to be deployed together so played it that they can be deployed anywhere.
Is this correct?

Oh well...I still think you are 3-2 up - Richard - when it comes to catching me out with such things.

No they can go anywhere and you can build you BLs gradually therefore. You could put your first 4 down spread out and leave 3 alone and bulk the rest of your army around the last one if you wanted too. Part of the fun is the bluff and double bluff over the deployment cycle.
