Sugs and flank charges.

[Protutor]

Good Evening. My son and I are playing another game of MeG. At the moment, I have a Flexible Tug of Italian Cavalry that is in Skirmish formation. My son has a Loose TuG of Punic cavalry about to charge my flank.
My question is, can I run away with the SuG even though I cannot roll any shooting dice (UG not in the frontal zone)?

[nikgaukroger]

Yes you can, and indeed if in good going must do so.

Good Evening. Thank you for your prompt response. Can I turn 90⁰ and then evade? I think this is allowed as per 3.2.3 on page 66 of the Maximus and Magna rulebook.

You can run away in one of three directions:  directly to your front, directly to your rear or directly away from the charge (with the exception that you cannot choose a direction that will end up close to the chargers and in their charge path).  You change to the direction of running away by turning and/or wheeling.  Turns are free, wheeling is measured.

Good Morning. Thank you for the clarification.
