Support after melee.

Message par prussianhussaruk » dim. 8 déc. 2019 11:24

I read that you resolve each shock before moving on to the next (page 57)

So does this mean a unit that has an action marker and is still in contact with an enemy, can count as support in a shock action with the unit it is next to?

This is a link to the picture I have posted on FB. Sorry don't have a hosting site.

French at the top Prussian at the bottom of the picture.
French unit top left loses the shock and is eliminated due to previous loses.
Prussian unit that fought it is in contact with the next French unit, so we assumed it counts as support?

was this right.

Thanks

Having an action marker disqualifies a unit from giving support. It is in the bullet points along with being disordered.

I'm sorry, I cannot see the image.

A unit with an action marker can provide a moral support but not a fire support.

Thank you for the reply.

Sorry I have been away in Prague for a few days and didn't have access to the forum.

Thanks again

Found it when I was away.

Unfortunately I was wrong! The action marker only disqualifies from fire support not morale support.
