Jon and crew,
I have a couple of questions/clarifications:
1. 5.141 (Waver Test) Last Paragraph
If I read this correctly, if any mounted element (not necessarily the whole unit) does not have to pass through a rough terrain, a very rough terrain, or an obstacle, then the loose or open infantry must waver, even though part of the mounted unit crossed rough terrain or an obstacle. If this correct, I would suggested that you consider adding "whole" to the first sentence between "the" and "mounted", so that reads - The term "beyond difficult terrain" means that the whole mounted unit must pass ...
2. 5.221 (Cessation-cured Disorder) Last Bullet
What is the definition of skirmishers, any unit in skirmish or any unit capable of skirmishing?
3, 6.12 (Maneuvers) Paragraph Labeled Turns
I am correct to assume that any body of troops that starts in a "column" (1x6 for example) then makes a right or left turn (for example, column right or column left) must change its frontage to "On Line" or "Double Column" (2x3 or 3x2) instead of remaining in a column. So in essence they are getting a free formation change whether or not they want to change formation. Does the unit have an option to stay in column?
Thank you in advance for your answer,
Harlan D. Garrett
