Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

In the beginning of Dark Age Warrior it states something to the effect that
if you purchase fortifications in your forward area a unit must be deployed
in them at the beginning of the battle.

1) I assumed this meant I had to Force March troops to occupy them, and
someone else read the rule as basically a 'free' force march for garrisoning
troops.

2) If I buy a huge honkin' fortification does it have to be occupied
entirely (a 16 element fronatage palisade has to be occupied by at least 16
Elements) or could I just have it held by a few boys who presumably force
marched while the rest of the army just walks into them later.

Thanks!

>Correct.

troops.

>Someone else read something that wasn't there. There is no "free"
Force March. If I need to put something on the web page to help with
this, I can.

2) If I buy a huge honkin' fortification does it have to be occupied
entirely (a 16 element fronatage palisade has to be occupied by at least
16
Elements) or could I just have it held by a few boys who presumably

marched while the rest of the army just walks into them later.

>That would be one tactic you could take.
