|
Suppose there is a unit (A) which is not forced to conform when it’s corps (I) is moving (because for example, it is in Simple Support), so it does not conform. However, later in the same player’s movement turn a unit (B) in another corps (II) now moves (for example, disengages) which opens up a conforming situation (because (A) is now touching an enemy but not in combat). Does the first unit (A) now conform, or because it’s corps (I) is already done with its movement does it just sit there waiting for the other player to conform or move away next turn?
Example, A in Simple Support of Main Combatant Unit B fighting enemy 1. A and B are in different corps and A’s Corp has already finished its moves. B disengages. Does A now conform against B and fight it?
BA

It doesn't have to and in fact can't conform.
Page 51 "Conforming units already in contact" first sentence:
Citation: | Due to melee results or movements in the previous sequence... |
Note also that this rule doesn't apply to units giving support to a friend in melee.

Thanks Dave.
I didn’t realize units already in contact with an enemy who were providing support to a friend who disengages (and thus are no longer providing support), did not have to conform. (I’ve always been careful to bring my supports out when I disengage.)
(1) Is this how everyone plays this?
(2) However, they could still spend a CP and move into combat, correct?
(3) (If the answer to 2 is yes,) Since they started in contact this would not count as a charge, correct? |

1 YEs people play by the rules
2 IF the corps has already moved it cannot then find CP
3 All units that start in contact are not getting first round stuff. |
