Elephant's escort

Postby lero » Fri Jul 28, 2017 11:45 pm

If an elephany is behind its escort, could both declare a charge on the same opponent ?
Question was asked last night with a seleucid/roman battle.

According to the Escorts rule, a formed unit (e.g. an elephant), can either charge through friendly escort skirmishers or replace a friendly escort unit in an existing combat. My reading of the rule is that it does not allow both the elephant and escort units to charge the same opponent at the same time.

That is correct.
