Enfilade (and routing in general...) [Napoleonic Battles]

[Mowgli]

Yeah, the rout test is always at the beginning of your turn.  All of those extra modifiers are "stored" and applied on the test in question.  So, a valid tactic is to use a weaker attack in enfilade along with a more powerful frontal attack to trigger losses.

Thanks a lot for your answer! So it's one test only. That's very interesting.

Do you know if units in skirmish formation can cause the -2 morale penalty if they enfilade an opponent? As mentioned above, it seems as if skirmishers do NOT benefit from the *1.2 firepower bonus for enfilading opponents, so my suspicion is that they don't cause the -2 morale malus either?
