Absolutly brilliant, I got Lawrence, Richard and Mike all agreeing with each other.
And now I am going to disagree, in relation to stragglers. Elements only become stragglers ( are straggling ) if they fail to show up on the bound of '
ARRIVAL, so they can not become stagglers until that bound is over. If they are not stragglers for the bound of
ARRIVAL then they can be kept of the battle field if pips can be used to bring them on.
I do feel this is against the spirit of the rules however and could do with tightening up in some way.
It does seem I may have answered my own question of arrival.
And
Note that non-arrived baggage does not count as lost, it is merely added to army losses when calculating defeat. This means in effect it only costs you 0.5 ME per element, you do not lose the corresponding 0.5 ME to each command that contributed. The cost-benefit trade off seems good enough to be cheesy, so it probably was not Phil's intention.
I have to say sorry to Lawrence, I did not understand what you were saying before, all I can say is
WOW of table train commands are getting better looking every day.
