currently aware of, as well as an option to select any legion of a specific kingdom. You
may make up to three target selections, however if more than one target is selected the
legion suffers a 3 point morale drop, regardless of whether the intercept is successful of
not.
Intercept Range (radius) is determined by speed and has three factors which may modify
it.
Legion Speed Rating
Intercept Range
Very Slow or Slow
2
Average or Quick
3
Fast or Very Fast
4
Blazing
5
If the intercepting legion is Army Group size, the intercept range is reduced by 1.
If the intercepting legion is led by a Warlord, the intercept range is increased by 1.
Additionally, you may optionally command that the legion either not enter a certain
terrain type, or only end movement in a certain terrain type. Choosing one of these
options reduces the intercept radius by 1, and of course increases the likelihood the legion
does not move because there is less chance of a target selected being in an area of that
terrain type.
When Intercept is selected the view will switch to the operational view (if in the tactical
view) and show a yellow circle of the appropriate intercept radius.
In program execution, the first target that is within the intercept range (and terrain
specifications, if any) and that is greater than Patrol size causes the legion to move to that
hex.
If more than one valid target exists at the same priority level (as with choosing “Any
(kingdom name) legion”, the legion Intercepts the target that has the greatest number of
brigades. If two or more potential targets have the same number of brigades, the legion
will Intercept the one closest to the beginning location of the intercepting group. If the
range is the same, one will be selected at random.
If no target is within the intercept range, the legion does not change its location.
Pursue Legion
Pursue Legion. A legion of less than Army Group size that begins the turn in the same
hex as another legion may Pursue that legion, i.e., end its movement in the same hex as
the target legion if certain conditions are met:
1.
Pursuing legion must have a speed rating equal or greater than the target legion.
NOTE: pre-movement transfers can affect the speed rating of both the pursing and
the pursued legions.
2.
The Pursue order will fail if the target legion force marches unless the pursuing
speed rating is two or more ratings faster than the target legion.
3.
Army Group size legions may not use the Pursue order.
