RE: AW's Feedback
Hmm, should have realized the longer the post, the less likely anyone will respond :)

Anyways, after further playing and re-reading the manual several times , I think I figured out some combat questions
It appears for each round of combat the side considered the attacker utilizes all units in the stack to attack (unit frontage and men available to attack is determined on a UNIT basis , not the hex), whereas the defending hex, the biggest unit (assumed to be in front ) takes the casualties. It appears then that there is a lot to be considered in using multiple units in a hex and slitting units. Its seems the more the better although larger units suffer less fatigue etc. Interesting.

So, I am still confused about the units whose weapon dictates they only use that weapon for the ist combat round.
Here is an example: A Lance cavalry comes into contact w a HC with spear on the IST 1/4 round and combat
If I understand correctly, the Lancer uses the lance base value for that one ist round , and then for the next three uses his sword, while the HC spear uses its light spear for 3 rounds before using his sword.
What Im not sure about, is in the next events phase, is the lance and spear used again(ie does it "re-set") or are they using swords for the remainder of being in contact?

To add to the confusion, what happen in say the last 1/4 round of combat on event phase 1, if a second HC spear enters combat... Does the Lancer use his lance vs that new HC but its sword vs the original HC? Then what happens in the next event phase??....
