ABC
_D_

XYZ

In the above diagram A,B,C and D are for units in army 1 and X, Y and Z are three units in army 2. The "_" just make the picture look better in the post.

X, Y and Z could all reach A, B and C (and D which is in front) in a charge. If the commander of Army 2 uses 1 pip to charge strait ahead and D decides to flee how is the pursuit roll done? I can see the following choices:

Only Y must roll since only its opponent fled, X and Z make contact, Y, if it rolls short may not.

Since it charged with one pip it can only make one pursuit roll therefore all or none may contact.

There is no pursuit roll (this may be logical, but I can find no rule to support it).[/url]

There is pursuit roll if the charge can reach a ennemy who doesn't flee, even if a ennemy on the way flee itselm.
So, if ABC are in distance of move from XYZ, they can be reach by a charge even if D flees.

if the target was D, then they must have a roll... and risk of being to short to reach ABC.
if the target was ABC, then no roll.
you choose the target when you declare charge in your move.
