Bataille Empire

Thanks Roger
I don’t why I couldnt find this
So you can’t charge a unit you can’t see
Pg 20. “A unit may only charge, fire or react against enemies that are visible to it”
Also “a hidden unit that fires, however reveals itself to all its enemies”
Still needs to be visible to charge it

Well that’s why I asked
For shooting you know there there but do you have to see them to charge?
The rules on charging make no reference to being able to see your target but how can you charge what you can’t see?

Yes you are correct
But what about next turn ?

Austrian Light and French light in the middle of dense woods Austrian under attack moves up to 1 UD and starts a firefight with French light Austrians take a loss and fail their morale test and fall back 2 UD disordered French turn Can they charge the Austrians Lights even though their beyond 1UD vi...

Hi
Page 42 RH column
Charge sequence
3rd bullet
“A formation change is allowed but only at the beginning of the charge and if the enemy is >Beyond the Tactical Distance<
No wheel is allowed following a formation change “

Thanks again

But do detached skirmishes with 1 cohesion loss have their +1 or +2 reduced by a cohesion loss?

At the start your correct
General rolled 1
3 inf, 3cav
Inf advances. 1 inf takes a cohesion and falls back disorepdered
Next turn
General rolls a 1
Now only 2 infantry

Mixed Division 2 Lt Inf, 3Lt Cav under Attack orders
Inf and cavalry are all in line formation and 7 UD away
Cmndr rolls a 1
Can the Cmndr choose to move the 2 Lt Inf full distance
Or
Must he Attack with the cavalry since they are in charge range?

Do battalion guns subtract the cohesion’s losses when firing by themselves
