Rules Question - Commanders

Post by MJT »

My tiny brain is having trouble getting around this ... I'm sure it's simpler than I think!

Last night we had a TC in the front rank (fighting) to give re-roll options and another General (the CinC (IC)) attached to the same BG to roll ++ for CMTs etc. I understand that only one General can influence each event ... but can I be "selective" for sequential events?

1. Can I have two Generals attached to the same BG - one in the front rank (fighting) and one to give + to CT , bolsters, and CMT?
2. Is the attached (but not Front Rank) General able to continue to give + to other BG within range - even though "his" BG is in melee?
3. Does the "General in the Front Rank" cease at the moment the BG is no longer in melee?

Yes / no answers (with Page references) is fine.
thanks

Need to check.

To confirm....

1) Yes - but the general in the front rank can do both, so unless the 'other' general is an IC, then he's of no additional value.
2) Yes
3) Yes
