I have a unit in an assault hex that is supposed to flee, but all 6 hexes around it are occupied by enemy units. So, I think 14.33 governs and he goes to ground.
However, then I notice that one of the hexes is occupied only by a loaded wagon. 6.71 says units can freely enter hexes containing only transports, and that they eliminate the transports.
It seems odd to me that fleeing units could eliminate anyone, even just a loaded transport. And the rules aren't clear on this.
Any thoughts?
Joe--- 14.33 and 14.35 are in conflict about your Demoralized unit fleeing the assault hex...
14.35 explicitly says he must exit the Assault hex....
So 14.33 is about Demoralized units Fleeing.
14.35 is Demoralized units
in Assault Hex Fleeing....
I think 14.35 takes precedence in your case....he got to go...
if he cannot...he cannot be.....
But---I do think he can run over the Transports--only if they are empty (12.13)---desperate men with guns are not going to be stopped by
guys with horses.....
or in Trucks....
Leaders also would be displaced---even in Transports me thinks...
