My recent questions seemed to have sunk into the recent time warp so I'm
reposting them. Perhaps Kevin would be so kind as to repost the answers.

1807 Questions

Q1. Does the attrition modifier for cavalry during Mud Weather only apply to
an all cavalry force?

Q2. The rules on damaging bridges says if the enemy occupies any hex
adjacent to the damaging/repairing force, a DRM applies. The Bridging Table
and errata refer to only the other hex adjacent to the bridged hexside.
Which is it?

Q3. If artillery bombardment destroys the enemy force before attack
resolution, how is pursuit handled?

Q4. If a force retreats through enemy controlled hexes, but the winning side
cannot pursue due to having artillery, are losses still doubled?

Q5. Let's say a multi-hex force contacts an enemy force with one of its
subordinate forces. Can another Leader move up to contact, take command of
the subordinate force and attack the enemy force with the resulting
multi-hex force (assuming the command span is sufficient)?

Q6. If a counterattack causes a retreat of part of a multi-hex force (either
attacker or defender), does the remaining part have to remain for the next
round of combat or can it retreat as well? If so, does this require that the
retreating part have a Leader with sufficient command span to command the
rest of the retreating force?

Mike, Here are the answers to your 1807 Questions. Enjoy the game!

A1. You only apply the attrition modifier for cavalry during Mud if the
cavalry component of the force expended the most MPs.

A2. The DRM applies only if the enemy occupies the other hex adjacent to the
bridged hexside.

A3. If artillery bombardment destroys the enemy force before attack
resolution, the friendly force may advance into the vacated hex. If you want
to pursue a force, make sure you don't completely destroy it in bombardment.

A4. If a force retreats through enemy controlled hexes, but the winning side
cannot pursue due to having artillery, losses are still doubled.

A5. If a multi-hex force contacts an enemy force with one of its subordinate
forces, another Leader can move up to contact, take command of the
subordinate force and attack the enemy force with the resulting multi-hex
force (assuming the command span is sufficient). A Force is re-defined at
the moment of combat. The shape of the force for movement is a separate
matter.

A6. If a counterattack causes a retreat of part of a multi-hex force (either
attacker or defender), the remaining part must remain for the next round of
combat (it cannot retreat as well).
