Spearmen POA's

Post by TERRYFROMSPOKANE »

Page 94: Spearmen not charging get a "+" POA "unless ......spearmen in single rank if they are supported by a 2nd rank of Battle Troops."

Taken literally this would mean spearmen in a single rank with no support would get the "+" POA. Surely there is something wrong here.

I imagine spearmen in a single rank are denied the POA. But is the text above meant to say spearmen in a single rank supported by a second rank of non spear battle troops get the POA -or- do not get the POA?

Perhaps the word "if" is supposed "unless"?

Thanks,

Terry G.

Hi Terry, yes there is a "not" missing here. See the errata at http://www.bhgs.org.uk/uploads/9/3/2/3/ ... _10_17.pdf

The rule is that the second rank guy doesn't heed to be a spearman he just need to be battle troops. It makes those rare units of front rank spear second rank shooters a little tougher.
