Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[Ed Forbes]

7.2 a pavise counts as cover and shield, except if carried on back of
hand gun or crossbow, then count cover and shieldless when shooting.

Question: do all crossbow / handgun count as above or is the above
exception a list rule for some armies?

All CB/HG armed figures count this way if equipped with Pa and shooting.

Thanks Jon,

I think the wording on 7.2 should be tightened up on CB / HG.

I have had opponents state that their CB did not carry the Pa on their
back, so they took both shield and cover. I had to agree with them as
the way it is written implies that only some, not all, CB / HG have
their Pa on their back. I realize the parenthesis can be thought of as
outside the sentence, but not all usage, including yours, of parenthesis
use this rule. Best to keep it clear.

I suggest something on the order of removing the statement in
parenthesis, (that is hung.....), from the body of the sentence stating
the rule. Adding an explanation at very end of the line on CB / HG on
how CB / HG use Pa carried on their back as the reason for the rule would
be ok. This change would make it clear that all, not some, CB / HG are
impacted.

The statement in parens is 'color'. But I will note this for the second
printing.
