Flank Charge by a Supporting Unit
by armstp Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:16 am
Units A and B are fighting each other frontally in a continuing melee. Unit C charges into the flank of Unit A, restarting the melee as a Supporting Unit. If A loses the melee is it immediately routed as per 7.2.3 because it is charged from the flank by Unit C, or does this only apply if it is the Main Unit which is charging the flank.

that's correct. If taken on the flank/rear and melee is lost, the Unit is destroyed, no matter who was its main opponent.
