| | Belle Alliance| 1.2.0 Tactical units | | 1.2.1 Main rule | A tactical unit may be split only in the circumstances indicated below. Only parts of the same split unit may be assembled. | | 1.2.2 Infantry | The tactical unit is the battalion. Units may be split in two parts when they count more than 40 figures at the time of splitting. Furthermore, units may be split in two or more parts under urban combat, ref. 6.1.0, but must seek assembly at the end of the urban combat. | | 1.2.3 Cavalry | The tactical unit is the regiment. Units may be split in two or more parts, counting one or more squadrons. | | 1.2.4 Artillery | The tactical unit is the battery. Units may be split in two or more parts, counting one or more model guns. Gunners may leave their model guns, ref. 2.2.5, without this being viewed as a splitting of the unit. A redistribution of gunners between the model guns may take place only within the battery and is carried out as a change of formation. However, when the model guns concerned are split, the gunners instead must leave and rejoin the model guns, ref. 2.2.5. Supply waggons have one driver that is assumed to be placed on the base of the supply waggon. Provisions concerning artillery apply in a similar manor to supply waggons and drivers. | | 1.2.5 Skirmish lines | The fact that a skirmish line is moved away from its mother unit, ref. 1.1.2, is not considered as a splitting of the unit, but the skirmish line and the mother unit may under certain conditions be fired at and attacked as separate units, ref. 3.3.0 and 4.3.0. When a skirmish line rejoins its mother unit, a common status is calculated as for the assembly of a split unit, ref. 1.2.6. This also applies, where single figures are deployed into the skirmish line or rejoin the mother unit, ref. 1.3.2. | | 1.2.6 Split units | The individual parts of a split unit are considered as separate tactical units, which also applies in relation to valour, disorder, supplies, and other positive and negative factors. When the individual parts of a split unit have gained a different valour, ref. 5.5.2, a common valour is assigned at assembly, corresponding to the valour of the largest part at the time of assembly. The same applies to other issues, such as disorder, supplies, and other positive and negative factors. | Contents
