Leader Crushed by Fleeing AFV

[Hugmenot]

An unusual situation arose in my game against Vince earlier today.

One my demoralized AFVs failed its morale check and had to leave the assault hex. I selected one of two hexes randomly and then realized it was occupied by the enemy's demoralized top officer. We spent a couple of minutes trying to find a rule stating whether this was forbidden but finding none, we allowed the move to stand. A "9" later and the major was no more.

That will teach leaders to keep their heads up even when demoralized.

I think we both found the situation too funny to remember it was also decapitation!

I say you played it 100% correct! You have to love those unusual situations that come up in PG.

"We weren't flee'n! No, sir; no way! We were chase'n this here fella." ::indicates sullen major::

It was not a nice way to lose a major boys :-(

[Poor Yorek]

I suppose another way to look at this is as a PG variant of the anecdote:

"Ahoy, I'm on starboard tack; I've got right-of-way."
"Ahoy, I've got the bigger boat."
