Disruption Points Question
Forgive the dumb question. Can a unit rally off disruption points in the same turn it moves or fires? I read the rules to mean a unit can only rally disruption points on a turn it is stationary but it can fire and rally DPs as long as it does not move that turn. Thanks for any input. I just finished my first couple units and my British line were advancing against levy troops in cover. The Brits received 3 DPs during the advance, 2 DPs from fire and 1 DP from movement. I halted the Brtis 7 or so inches from the levy and rallied off 2 DPs prior to declaring a charge. So the Brits moved (1DP) and received 2DPs from fire on turn 4. On turn 5 the brits redressed and did not move and rallied 2 DPs at the end of the turn. They were lucky and did not receive any additional DPs on the turn they were stationary. On turn 6 they charged home. Was this correct

Hi, Not a dumb question at all. You can fire and rally off DP that turn. If you move at all or change formation during a turn you cannot rally off DP's at the end of that turn. Your example looks fine to me, you halted to rally off DP's. I am assuming your British unit was either elite or had an officer attached as you were rallying off 2DP's per turn. Hope that helps regards Paul

thanks for the response..glad to know I can interpret the rules. You are right I did have the Brigade Commander attached to the line unit, so i could rally off 2DPs a turn....thanks for the feedback
