Flee and Pursue

Rulebook

The victorious unit can choose to pursue or restrain pursuit. a fleeing and pursuing unit both move 2D6". If the losing unit failed its Break test, it must flee, but the winning unit can choose to either pursue the fleeing unit or restrain. I you wish your unit to restrain pursuit, it must first take a Leadership test. If the test is passed, the unit can choose to reform once the defeated enemy has fled. If the test is failed, the unit is forced to pursue.

Restrain or Pursue

Unlike other phases of the game, the combat phase offers both sides a chance to inflict damage, although it is the player whose turn it is who will be the one choosing the order of the combats. All close combats must be resolved during this phase – a unit in combat cannot choose not to fight, for whatever reason. Most combats involve a single unit fighting a single opposing unit, so that's what we will discuss first. Sometimes however, you'll end up with a multiple close combat where there is more than one unit fighting on one or both sides. Multiple close combats have some additional rules, which you will find discussed towards the end of the chapter. As all the rules for a normal close combat also apply to a multiple close combat, you'll probably find it easier (and clearer) if you just work your way through the section.
