Medieval Warfare Rules Clarifications

Part 3: Pursuits -- Rules Change

by Terry Gore


A pursuing unit that contacts a fresh enemy unit immediately fights the close combat instead of waiting until next turn. This is consistent with the Breakthrough Move contact being fought our immediately and adds a new dynamic to the game.

The pursuing unit does not get any charge die roll, but does get the Pursuit combat modifier.

If the pursuing unit manages to break and rout a second enemy unit and then manages to pursue into a third enemy unit, that combat will be fought out next turn. Only one Pursuit Close Combat is allowed per unit per turn.
