Can artillery prolong with two infantry unitd
Hi
Can an artillery unit prolong along with two infantry units that are within 2 UD and facing in the same direction as long as they make the same move and end up facing in the same direction?

Hi,
for me it's possible.
however, you cannot count this two infantry to reach the 50% as they don't have done a full move..

Re: Can artillery prolong with two infantry unitd
I agree for the fisr answer but...
As the move was done with the slowest unit, i think you can count the infantery for 50% compulsory (unless you can unlimber the artillery to go faster)

hi Talleyrand
if you look at the french FAQ Hervé said :
Ordres et changements de formation – Page 30
On ne doit pas utiliser les changements de formation ou le mouvement de l’artillerie à la prolonge pour
artificiellement ralentir une division qui a un ordre ATTAQUER ou ENGAGER.
Ainsi, dans un groupe avec de l’infanterie et de l’artillerie avec un ordre ATTAQUER ou ENGAGER, l'infanterie doit
charger ou avancer vers l'ennemi de son plein mouvement ou jusqu’à portée de tir de salve (2 UD) et l'artillerie doit
s'avancer à portée effective pour tirer. Si les unités font un autre mouvement, elles ne respectent pas leur ordre

So, its a legal move as long as the overall division has repected the orders. For instance if 2 other units in the division made a full advance with engage orders and the artillery is now in effective range.

This units cannot be counted for a "full move", but if this 2 units can fire after this move you could count them to respect the compulsory 50%.

Presumably if the 2 units started 2 ud to the rear left and right sides of the artillery and moved a full move so that they were now 2ud to the front left and right of the artillery and in the same orientation, this would also respect the orders.
