Art De La Guerre

That is how I understood it, but thought it worthwhile clarifying. I find single element moves really difficult often resulting in not being able to get them were you want them to be despite being in ...

Not relevant to this discussion, but it does involve wheeling and thought there is no point starting a new one. For a group wheel the illustration shows they pivot on a corner. Is it the same for sing ...

It would appear so, always worth checking as you can never be sore you’ve missed something somewhere else.

It would take a cohesion hit from the initial hit, I would assume it would turn and face the HC still in contact to it's flank.
Yes and no. The spear do not turn (it's the cav's phase) and are now th ...
