Hello Jon,

Could you please clarify the following for me;

1) A low morale unit is prompted to charge. Does the resulting waver test occur before the charge is actually declared?

2) A mounted unit wants to counter-charge foot. Again, is the waver test made before the move itself?

(The situation was that an infantry unit, on attack orders, had declined its initial free charge, so needed a prompt. The opposing mounted unit then wanted to declare a counter-charge.)

Thanks, Raphael

I apologize for the delay in answering.

In both those cases, the waver test is made before the charge/countercharge.

Timing question.

A Disordered Cavalry unit with 11 fatigue charges a bow armed unit. Cavalry completes charge with 13 fatigue. During support shooting, the bow unit does 3 cpf from missile fire causing a waver for being disordered while disordered.

The Cavalry unit now has 16 fatigue, is the waver check made as an Exhausted unit, with a -1, or as a willing unit?

Fatigue is not assigned until the completion of combat, even from support shooting...so, support shooting cannot make you tired or exhausted.

Support shooting CAN make you disordered AND cause that waver for second disorder.

Thus, the waver test noted above is not as an exhausted unit.

Frank has the right of it.

Sorry for the delay. Sometimes the site does not alert me like it should.

Thats OK Jon, I just logged onto my yahoo mail account, and found all the postings and replies from this forum for the last several months. I need to clean that one out more often.
