Hi There,
I'm building a late Anglo-Dutch army with BG's of 5 shot and 1 Pk.
The Pk is in the rear rank, so do the front ranks count as 'protected'?
Best,
Mark

When it matters, yes.
Strictly speaking, they are not Protected when the Pk is in the rear rank. However, the pike can be moved to the front rank whenever they are contacted or contact enemy, so, in effect, they are Protected.
