Question on Pursuit

Post by Hammer » Sun Mar 12, 2017 9:23 pm

Pursuit.
reading 63.1 and 63.3 slightly unclear. Should 63.1.e say “Pike that received rear support and its supporting Pike?”

reading 63.3. Is this related to DOUBLING and therefore includes Lt Spear, Warband, Spear, and Warriors?

reading 34.4 and 34.5, would it be correct to delete 34.5 and instead have 34.4.f state "all Warband, Warrior, and Pike eligible to provide support."

63.1.e says Pike that received rear support. 66.3 says "a stand that provided rear support to a pursuing stand must also pursue." So the supporting pike must pursue. Writing it your way is duplicating 66.3 in part, isn't it?

Not just doubling. Doubling causes pursuit, but Warband/Warriors can have rear support and might pursue without doubling the foe.
