Pg. 19 under ORDERS: Recover: Only one Recover Order may be placed on each unit. Consider Recover as a rallying around the unit banner and a re-ordering of the ranks. Recover Orders are placed during the Order Phase of the turn. During the Order Phase of a turn, Recover Orders are placed on units which the player desires to Recover from Rout, Disorder, Fragmentation or Out of or Low on Missiles. (Delete Section 2, no longer used.) Units with Recover Orders stand in place with no movement of any kind other than making a 'free' 180 degree turn, if desired, during the Recovery Phase. The unit may then Recover either:
from Fragmented to Disordered from Disordered to Normal or from Out of Missiles or Low on Missiles to Restocked (one Recover does both, you are either stocked or not!) Recovering Units may fire unless in Rout or Out of Missiles, but with penalties. Recovering Units may wheel to face an enemy charge, but the unit does not Recover; remove the marker immediately. Pg. 20 under Sequence of Play Recovery Phase: This is the part of the turn when troops are brought back from rallying and resting to a better organized physical and psychological state. This is performed simultaneously by both players. 1) Units, which had a Recover Order marker placed on them during the Orders Phase, may Recover either:
From Fragmented to Disordered. Replace the Fragmented marker with a Disorder marker. From Disordered to Normal Remove the Disorder marker. From Out of ammunition or Low on ammunition to Restocked. These remain until the Fire Phase is finished. From Frenzied to non-frenzied (non-Fanatics only). Remove the Frenzied marker. The Recover Order markers are not removed until the end of the turn. Units with Recover markers may not move other than to make a 'free' 180 degree turn to face an enemy at the beginning of the Recovery Phase.
