I found something that seems "wrong" in logical.
You have to roll a Minor every time that Army spends a march on the Terrain including a minor.

But i see Minor in this Kind:
My Firewalkers start an Assault on a Flatland.
The scouts find a Bridge and the General decides: Take this.
Now i bring in my bridge Minor and roll it., coming to defense x2, symbolizing an easy to defend Point.

And now i see, as long my Army is not starting a maneuver, they stay at this Point and can withstand my opponent with ease.

If they do a maneuver, they are moving and go to another place, looking what to find there, means rolling the minor.

Any Ideas to his?


P.S. My 100´st Post!!!

Every march has a maneuver and an action. Each is optional. But think of the no maneuver case as a "digging in". So you don't move, but you are setting up for the action.

Congrats for posting your 100th!!! Very Happy Very Happy

It's funny that you come up with this today! I just played yesterday evening and we played EXACTLY as you stated (but for mistake reasons, LOL).
Somehow I had in mind that the Minor is rolled when performing a maneuver ONLY, and I didn't bother to confirm yet. But now that you mention it, I should take a look at the rules again. If it says MARCH instead of maneuver it wouldn't make sense in REAL TACTICS CONSIDERATION, but then again, you still have the risk of the terrain changing due to rising or lowering the water surface, the bridge breaking or else (which is the desaster icon on the die!). This would mean that if the army doesn't move, there can't be a desaster!? That wouldn't make sense either!
If the flood comes, it comes, no matter if your army stands on the bridge just enjoying the beautyful landscape or maneuvering around like crazy.
Same with landslide or revolt! Some even get lost in the woods when searching for fire wood only, LOL!

In yesterday's game the Coral Elves were sitting at a coastland on missile range and the minor showed double saves.
Since we played it wrong, they had a great advantage for a long time, because saves were doubled ALL THE TIME!
