    Thursdays game threw up a few queries. I’ve had a couple of conversations and looked at the rules and it is pretty clear

    Assaulting in the flank.
    When a square is assaulted from the flank only, if the target loses and needs to retreat or choices to retire which direction do they go?
    A – towards their own base line. Right angles from the assault
    B – directly away from the assault. i.e. a sideways move

    Page 52 (assaulter wins the fight)

    “target units all moved back towards the baseline by 1 square”

    So, be careful when you get behind the enemy!

    Attacking the rear
    If a square fair a moral test and has to retire does it always go towards its baseline. We had a weird looking on where some cavalry assaulted the rear of the square … lost .. got some casualty markers. Subsequently failed the morale but its movement was blocked by the square it was tying to assault previously.

    as above

    Winning the fight.
    If 1 unit has a marker a square , with other units that do not. If you win another fight can you award it to another unit? so 2 units can have a marker?

    Yes , page 53… winning the fight
    “… result in several units having winning the fight markers”

    Winning the fight
    If you win the fight do you remove all casualty markers for the square or only those inflicted as part of the assault?

    Yes, page 52 …
    “The winner of the fight removed all their own casualty markers”
