Hi. I've been lurking on the board for a while now, have finally got a copy of "Republic to Empire" and have been trying them out solo before we give them a go at the club.
The only issue I have at the moment is regarding Light Battalions and from what I've read I believe this is all Clarence's fault
When a light battalion goes into limited, half or full deployment of skirmishers (or reverse of same) is that classed as deploying/recalling skirmishers or a formation change with a form command. I think they are the same MP cost, but with the latter they can't do anything else that move?
Secondly. When a light battalion in any of the above deployments has to retire to a formed body, does that mean the supports of a half/limited deployed battalion have to retire too, or does the skirmish element retire to/behind that formed element of its own battalion?
Thanks,
Neal
