Title: Dismountable infantry block-moves with what else?
Post by: LawrenceG on March 24, 2022, 07:47:38 PM
Can dismountable infantry (that hasn't dismounted yet)  block-move with cavalry, infantry, or both (not at the same time, obvs)?

As the rules are currently written, dismountable infantry are still infantry so they block move with other infantry.

I think the rules for dismountable infantry need changing.

As the characteristic says they "move as formed loose cavalry/camelry" there is probably wriggle room to say that when making a block move they are "cavalry/camelry" and so are bound by what those can block move with.

Seems sensible to me.  Would benefit from a clarification.
