Multiple Cavalry Melees - some observations

[KG_RangerBooBoo]

Yes, clarification is needed here. The rule from the manual, "Select Multiple Cavalry Melees to allow cavalry units to melee attack units that have already been meleed against." No mention of receiving melee attacks there but making attacks. Just to be sure I tested it this morning. You can open up the Getting Started scenario from Austerlitz and select the rule. Move one of the Russian infantry battalions forward and melee attack the French infantry unit that is in range. Then use one stack of the cavalry to charge that same infantry unit and it will allow you to melee attack a unit that has already been melee attacked earlier. Now start it up again and make sure the rule is unselected. Again move and melee attack with one of the Russian infantry battalions. Select one of the cavalry stacks and charge that same French unit and try to melee attack. You'll get the following error message popup; Multiple Cavalry Melee Optional Rule not in Effect, and you won't be allowed to melee attack that unit again. The rule when turned on allows cavalry to melee attack units that have already been melee attacked in the turn. Set up the scenario again but with the rule off and charge with a cavalry unit against that same poor French unit first. You'll win the melee and move the infantry unit back. Try and melee again against that unit and you'll get that same error message. Do it again with the rule on and you can continue to push that infantry unit back as long as you keep winning and it stays in your charge arc.
