I just want to check I have the correct interpretation of the definition.

1 hit per x bases in the battle group:- I have been playing it that the hits multiplied by 2 has to equal or exceed the number of bases in the battle group. However it has been suggested that it is in fact 1 hit per (complete number of) x bases in the battle group.

Using an example if there were 5 bases in the battle group I would need to inflict 3 hits from shooting to force a cohesion test ( 3x2=6 which exceeds the 5 bases), if I use my logic but only 2 if I use the (complete number of) approach, as there are only two complete pairs of bases in the battle group.

Any thoughts?

This is correct. See the latest version of the FAQ

The rest of your example is flawed because you only need 1HP3B to trigger a CT from shooting, but you are correct about the number of hits needed to get 1HP2B.

on a five or six base BG you need 3 hits to get 1H/2B and 2 hits to get 1H/3B which if shooting hits would trigger a CT.

Thanks for the quick replies.

Sorry about the error in the example. That will teach me not to get carried away with the words in future.
