Bataille Empire

It has happened in several games where a battery loses a melee and is destroyed resulting in the supporting infantry unit becoming disordered even when in square

I wonder if routing artillery(an unformed unit) routing is really suppose to cause a unit within 1UD to its rear is suppose to cause a disorder?

I think something is missing in the English version that would exclude artillery and detached skirmishers routing from causing support less than 1UD taking a disorder

Hi Viking

look at the "clarification" file .

Retraite d’une unité vaincue – Page 60
Lors d’une retraite, une unité ne peut traverser qu’une seule unité amie. Si elle a plusieurs amis en colonne juste
derrière, on pousse les autres unités pour lui faire de la place.
Une artillerie ne retraite pas, elle est éliminée sur place aussi elle ne cause pas de Désordre derrière elle.
Les tirailleurs ne causent pas non plus de Désordre s’ils fuient ou retraient car ils peuvent traverser les autres unités
sans restriction.

Retreat of a defeated unit - Page 60
During a retreat, a unit can only pass through one friendly unit. If she has several friends in just column
behind, we push the other units to make room for it.
Artillery does not retreat, it is eliminated on the spot so it does not cause Disorder behind it.
Skirmishers also do not cause Disorder if they flee or retreat as they can pass through other units.
without restriction.

Thank you Zeitoun
I should copy and paste this to English as the Google translate doesn’t work to translate like on the forum
