This is a good issue, and one that will get answered. However, I have to
solve the larger issue of how pivoting will occur in the first place. See a
few messages back.
Once we solve that, we'll answer Don's question. My gut tells me his
proposed solution is not far off from what we will use.

Jon:I am very interested in the answer to Don's question below. Because of the
3x2
block's inability to form up to an enemy, he couldn't declare a charge against
my
LC. Angled in a certain way, my two bodies of LC could potentially hold him off
for ever.
