Excuse a total newbie question, but can Light Infantry support

Alasdair

[chris6]

Yes it can, but take care about the restrictions for light troops and making contact.

[alasdair2204]

You mean the fact that if you are supporting and the enemy win you can be killed on impact so it is risky to do, thanks for the quick reply

No, what i meant is that you are not allowed to charge or make contact with the opponent in every situation with light troops. there is a chapter about contact restrictions wihich is mentioned on the QRS Sheet too.

[sebastosfig]

indeed.

It means that if you want to add support from light infantry, you must first charge with your "heavies", THEN move your LI in support, if there is no heavier ennemy in front of him, obviously.

Hi Simon

medium infantry actually

only had two mounted bases in the whole army, felt wrong though but we'll see, what army do you tend to use

cheers
