So some Medium and Light cavalry were charged in the rear/flanks by numerous cataphracts and light cavalry.

Everyone with an arrow charged in this turn. The light cavalry will turn to face the cataphract that hit it (first). We are not sure if it loses a cohesion point due to the light horse supporting the other cataphract that didn't initially hit its flank, but will be on its flank after the light horse conforms.

No, a unit doesn't suffer a cohesion hit in this case.

I'm not agree but maybe I didn't understand the position.
The unit conform and when conforming get a second unit on the flanc. Is it a case of cohesion lost? No charge.

Has the catafract and light horse contacted in the same turn or not, the answer depends of that.

The original question was : "is a unit whose conform after a flank attack and has after conformation unit in this front (the cause of conformation) AND a unit in this flanc cause of conformation, loose a cohesion point"?
I'm not sur to be clear ...
A unit whose put his flank against the front of an ennemy unit doesn't loose cohesion point.

Hi Ethan,

First of all, the “yellow” Lh must conform (turn to face) at the end of the turn the “arrow” CAT and LH contact him. It means the first combat phase occures in the photograph situation and the yellow LH will most certainly be destroyed before its conformation.

If the Lh is still alive, it must then turn to face the CAT in his own turn (or phase, don’t know the correct term in English). In my opinion he doesn’t lose any CP because of the LH on his flank because there is no charge.
And even if there’s a charge, don’t forget light troops don’t inflict (?) cohesion hit for flank/rear attack.

Sorry if not so clear, it’s not easy to explain in English ! Smile

But light troop inflicts cohésion hit only to light troops !
Si it's clear now. Because the yellow LH was charge by to face (back and side) in the same turn it loose a CP. But not another when it conform (if it survive of course Wink

).

The LC that is charging the yellow LC actually contacted it in the charge?
Or did it stop short like the photo seems to suggest?

I do not believe you drop a level after the conform which comes after melee.
