Hi guys,
Does maximum movement distance (from the Movement Chart in the Movement section of rules) affect pursuits?
The rules in the Pursuit section say: "The distance the pursuers are allowed to move is not fixed – it will vary depending on the distance retreated by the enemy."
It can easily happen in multiple combats.
Let's say that a unit from the right flank of the combat is not able to pursuit the unit it was in contact with in the previous round of combat. The only edge still accessible is on the opposite side of the whole combat.
In order to get there, the unit would need to move forward than it's maximum movement distance (20cm for an infantry or monster).
Can the unit make the move (pursue), assuming that there is a clear path?
Under normal circumstances (such as described above), I would say yes. However, the same could also apply to some pretty ridiculous situations, such as cavalry riding around a big terrain feature (forest), traveling enormous distance (could easily be 50 cm). For such, I would just apply common sense.
What do you think about this?
