General giving a bonus when fighting in 2nd rank?

There is a Clrries/Errata document on the MeG website - https://lurkio.co.uk/meg/meg/wp-content/uploads/MEG2020/Rule_Materials/MeG%20Compendium%20Clarries.pdf

No doubt will be updated from time to time.

Already exists.

it's the updating of it with the current batch of "maybe for v3 some day" that is more the question. Hopefully those issues are collated for inclusion?

I keep that in the background privately. Its a rather short list at present.

Nothing broken at all. Maybe I will have a big idea in 5 years time.
But right now I think we have lovely stability for 10 years of playing the game.

No problem, as I said, I've just noticed 2-3 "maybe for v3" replies as I've been going through the forums, just didn't want to lose track of tweaks that may have been made or agreed upon that aren't in an errata document, nothing I hate more than when someone pops a "oh didn't you see that post in the forum, it's been changed". That said, my reply is always "show me in the rules or an official errata or we play by as per the book".

No, honestly, I called Simon last night and he said...

Is the right answer. That is why we have the official errata on the rules section as against the banter and debate here.

If the corridor is one file then yes it would be.
are we going round in circles.

So

A
B
C
D

All facing forwards is 1 file. So I guess there yes he counts for all.
Once they turn they create new files in the same corridor so then have to choose.
Is that fully consistent as written.

Hy I come back on this one as we had a similar case yesterday. I did not find it in the clarries so just want to be 100 % sure : the general gives it's bonus to the whole file, for all fights of the file as long as all bases are facing the SAME direction so if flank charged the general gives it's bonus at charge but may loose it if the base later turns to face the enemy.

Also I suppose every time a base is lost, there is a KAB to the general

I would suggest make it a bit clearer in the updated version
