Hi All,

I don't know how to put up the photograph of this situation. Can someone give some simple steps to a dumb user please?

Don't be nasty Dave!

Cheers
Rob

Upload the image to a photo hosting site like photobucket. Copy the link for the image after you have uploaded it. There is normally a button next to the picture for this. Then paste the link inside the Img tags like

Thanks Phil, now I have to remember my password for the photo site I last used a couple of years ago!
Why won't we see you in Berlin in July?
Stay well,
Rob

I hope this photo reveals itself - sorry about the focus-

Franks question:-
"The situation with the photo is very complicated to explain.
The slingers(6 bases) and the pike declare charges. The slingers charge first and the roman skirmishers react by evading
Question: Can the pike block now wheel to reach the cavalry?
It was not possible for the pikemen to wheel and charge the cavalry before, because the roman skirmishers were directly to the front, preventing any wheel."

My comments to help you understand:- The Pike are in the middle facing down. The Velites are a 4 base BG. The distance from the front left corner of the pike to the overlapping cavalry is exacty 1.5 MU. We measured carefully and If the pike can wheel and these do so for 1.5 MU, they then have the straight move to contact the Cav. - total move 3 MU.

From what I have read, because the velites evaded, the Pike can only wheel up to 1MU (pg.58 dot point at top left) and therefore not contact the Cav. base.

Your edification please Gentlemen.

Cheers
Rob

Sounds about right to me Rob. See you in July

Won't I need a visa after the 23rd?

Probably not but unfortunately I have a lot on my plate at the moment, I can't even do the Challenge in UK this weekend

A referendum is an opinion not a decision!! It will affect me too if the brexit really happens - I won't be able to vote in the European Parliamentary elections. They will take away the "...European Union .." part of my British Passport. Yep -I'm an Aussie and a Pom! Daddy was from Yorkshire.
See you whenever,
Rob

Hopefully not too long
