Yo Jon
I remember a while back this came up as a discussion, however, with my memory loss. I can't remember or find the exchange.
1) I have a palisade fronting north and one fronting east. They are joined perpendicular to each other. I can't have a unit facing in two different directions since they will not be joined at the base except at the corners. Do I need two different units defending , each defending each palisade and facing that direction?
2) If they are bow units defending the palisades. At the corner there seems to be a zone that neither can shoot . How would one cover that corner?

1) If I understand your description, you'd need two units to do what you want.
2) I'd need a diagram. Shooting arc extends out an element width beyond the end of each unit, so any "uncovered zone" would be some distance away "on the angle".
The base rules are not designed to handle complex fortification set ups. That is something we intend Siege Warrior to handle.

Yo Jon
You answered my questions, thanks. The extended element for the bow was what I figured would cover the zone. But I just wanted to check with you to see if that applied in this situation.
When the time comes for work on the siege warrior. I would like to help. Keep me in mind.
Thanks
