Keils and Obstacles

Post by KiwiWarlord »

I am playing Adwalton Moor against the Royalists, the battle is fought in and around Enclosures/Obstacles.
The Royalist Keils do not get a Factor on Impact when they charge a Musket Unit of Roundheads but do get +100 in the Melee giving them +100 against 0
Pray tell how these Pike armed Close Formation Keils ( who must be disrupted somewhat) get a factor when poking their pikes through a hedge whilst the Musketeers would be firing through the hedge at them and get nothing ????
These Keils are running amok and the Roundhead Musketeers are running away.........

All replies most welcome.

In the impact phase the Deep Pike (Keil) bonus only applies in open terrain.
