Close order troops defending a placed obstacle

We are playing on Tabletop Simulator and were using the rectangular shaped obstacles (ditch, palisade, whatever) to cover the front of some defending close order troops. We expected that any attacker (ex skirmishers) would have to move through this obstacle as difficult terrain AND have to pay the p...

Warwagon base size

I just picked up a nice Hussite DBA/Triumph army at Hurricon in Florida last month. Having lived for 2 years in Prague, I know all about the Hussites and was eager to try them out on the table. But I have a problem... the wagons are mounted nicely with the horse teams in place and are on a 40x80mm b...

Flanking Movement Rule 54.4

In the attached pdf file, I have shown a situation involving rule 54.4 (moving to flank contact) which occurred in a game this week.

Rule 54.4 just forbids moving from ahead to full flank contact.

We wondered if partial flank contact as shown was allowed in this situation.

Touching and Contacting a unit

As an attacking unit first touches a single defender, must the defender immediately conform to the attacker? Even if the attacker may lack the MP to get into full contact before the defender conforms? What if the defender, in conforming contacts a friendly unit? Enemy unit? Tried to tease answers ou...

Re: Fallback contacting non-aligned units

OK. The answer is the falling back unit will only kill the first unit it contacts. Both units are eliminated and none others. Thanks.

Fallback contacting non-aligned units

From a recent game in the TTS tournament. What happens when a fallback contacts enemy or own units? Rule 80 is pretty specific and I have run afoul of it in past games with Rod. Your skirmisher needed to fallback. It could do so through your light foot but then contacted my jav cav in the flank whic...

Re: Wars of the Diadochi - TTS Mod League

Cassander here with a couple of questions. Reading the MeshWesh army list for my troops, I see a listing for Greek Jav Cav and Thessalian Jav Cav, each for 1. Yet on the signup inventory there is only 1 Jav Cav allowed. Also there are three types of light foot listed- Peltasts=8, Thracian= 2 and Epe...
