Page 73, it is write :
"FRAGMENTED troops cannot charge the ennemy camp, but Light Foot can..."
After reading this sentence We believe that LF fragmented can load a camp ... Our interpretation is correct?
Thanks for help

My personal opinion, based on paying attention to repeated author comments in this forum, is that the authors want you to read the sentence straight up. I read it that fragmented light foot cannot charge a camp.
There are 3 independent clauses in the sentence, which is why they are all separated by commas. You could take out the 'but' and the 'and' and make 3 sentences.
1. "Fragmented troops cannot charge the enemy camp," This is the same as Page 65. Fragmented BGs can't charge.
2. "Light Foot can [charge the enemy camp]." This statement allows an exception to page 64 which restricts light foot BGs to charging only other skirmishers in open terrain.
3. "No troops have to take a CMT to do so." This statement allows any disrupted BG (including disrupted skirmishers) to charge a camp without the CMT normally required per page 65.

Yes, I'd agree with that interpretation.
