Title: Are supporting files considered in close combat?
Post by: Francis Small on May 08, 2022, 12:17:38 AM
It seems as though a supporting file should be considered in close combat given that they are rolling a combat dice and all, yet I seem to recall a ruling was that they were *not* in close combat. There is a glossary entry for "combat" - a contiguous set of files that are fighting - and it would seem that supporting files are fighting, but again I think the ruling was that they are not. Maybe I'm just asking the same question and expecting a different answer - but could someone clear this up for me?

The last set of clarifications included a definition of "fighting" - basically it is a file rolling combat dice.

Beware what you write as a supporting file does not roll a dice but add a dice to the file who faces the enemy file  :)

Ok I'll flee
