Mark Fry has taken a very lucid stance on the matter for britcon. If you look on that site, itts as simple as one sentence. "corner to corner contact for units...
It doesn't say anything about corner to corner contact maintaining divisions or causing splits, which is more important to sort out (as it is the major...
Actually, Neil, as I interpret the suggested rule, it does address the split issue. The rule, as suggested on Waflute states "corner to corner contact for...
Unfortunately, what is trying to be done here is precisely having your cake and eating it, and that is the problem. If you allow contact through corners to...
Correct me if I am wrong, but did we not go through this subject a while back? I thought it was dead and buried, or, as Dr. F once said, "It's alive, it's...
The result of the last discussion (back in march or april) was that Rob realised something was wrong and he'd come up with a solution. We're still waiting for...
Armati requires units to be deployed in divisions. The rules do not like divisions to be split up. So I would say the division must check not individual...
Nobody is saying that the rules SAY this in a dogmatic legal sense at all. What is being said is that this is believed to be the intent of the rules and is a...
Dear Neil. In as polite and friendly a way as possible, with friendly voice, and a raised eyebrow. The reason no one is talking anymore is because this monster...

Hi All, For now, Mark's reiteration of the interpretation should stand. To answer Neil's continuation (again, FOR THE TIME BEING, as I am unable to give this...
... the head of a regulation-issue pin. ... Rob, not a very helpful comment, was it...? But I guess you can get away with saying things the rest of us can't,...
I forgot to mention that is idea of corner to corner is so DBMish, don't ya think? With that I am off for a long weekend in Northern Cali on the coast below...
... Neil, I think that you had a point and off line I put that point to Rob on the basis that, because Rob is super busy with a new job your query had been...
Hi Guys, only 98 days until Fall In! at Gettysburg, Here is the key information on deadlines. see website at www.fall-in.org VR James Mattes Well, Historicon...
What Rob may be trying to say is that this is a set of wargames rules not a maths or physics treatise and until he returns to consider this point we should...
Gents - I accept Rob's ruling alongside my own for Britcon (& probably also Bournemouth next Spring). Many thanks Rob (& Steph P - as the way it's played in...
That all depends on what you think a 'regulation-issue' pin is. Now where did I put those 'Terrain Wiggling Angled Tangent' charts ... I feel a game coming on...
LOL. That is a very good metaphor... I expect a week end of 'Just after Sunday breakfast' What with taking a WB army to a LI/LHI donnybrook at Britcon. Why did...
Hello chaps, Just thought I should correct an inaccuracy that has crept into this discussion. My only experience of playing in the US was at the highly...
Hi Stephen, 'Stairstepping' was allowed, however this did not block firing to the flank, nor did 'stairstepped' units have to check if a neighbouring unit...
... spirit of the ... my 1200 ... Steve, you come across as a smart guy. So I'll ask you to explain this to me. Anyone else may butt in I guess, but it's...
Oops! Is it a LI/LHI weekend then? And are you suggesting WB aren't going to help? Why do people always post these comments _after the entries go in? Phil...
Steve, I don't understand your diagram. I'll number your units 1-4 from left to right. You would allow the unit 2 to shoot but not 3 and 4. This appears to be...
I think his diagram refers to shooting forward at the word "target", in which case the blocking of fire is correct as I see it. But I don't think that is...
Goodness, Neil ... didn't anyone tell you 'corner to corner contact with no flank overlap' doesn't exist... :o)... Phil Less than a week to Britcon, so still...
