Post subject:  Recovery From Rout?
Hello All,
I am new here and i am wondering if anybody can clarify some HPS rules,

"If the unit is stacked with a Leader of the same organization or a higher organization as the unit and if the Leadership rating of the Leader is higher than the Morale value, the Morale value is set equal to that rating. If the Leadership rating is already equal to the Morale value, then 1 is added to the Morale value."

OK, that is clear enough, but it goes on to say,

"If it is a Day turn, then the Morale value may be affected by Corps and Army Leaders in adjacent hexes using the same process for Leaders in the same hex."

So is the second rule in addition to the first, or is there two tests, one for each rule[?]
Also why is "adjacent hexes" in the second rule,what would happen if the Corps/Army leaders were also in the same hex[?]
Any help would be great[:)]
Regards,
LJ.

Q1: there is still ONE test.

"Also why is "adjacent hexes" in the second rule,what would happen if the Corps/Army leaders were also in the same hex?"

Q2: ONE leader modifies the result. Not two. Thus if Morand were in the same hex as one of his units but Davout was adjcent then only Morand would be used to modify the result. If Davout were adjacent to six hexes of troops that were routed and none of them were stacked with a leader then they would use Davout's Leadership rating would be used as the Morale level as long as it was higher than the unit's morale rating, +1 if it was the same as the morale rating.

Btw - this is hard to track as you dont see the morale test results. The modifiers are hidden from the players.

Hope that helped.
