Still learning after all these years...

Thanks obi wan.

After reading Mr. Hughes reply of 30Aug13 relative to morale recovery. As I read the rules a unit trying to pass a morale check all they have to do is meet their morale number or less. If they are disrupted or demoralized then the one less of morale rule takes effect. Also the morale roll is raised one by town or woods hex. If I am wrong please feel free to point out my error. I have a game scheduled this weekend and I want to be accurate on the rules.

You're conflating Morale Checks and Morale Recovery, they are a little different:

Morale Checks (Rule 14.1)

• Unit's base morale
  
• -1 if demoralized
  
• can be increased +1 or +2 if in same hex or adjacent to an undemoralized leader with morale modifier (Rule 6.51)
  
• passes if 2d6 result is equal to or less than morale
  

Morale Recovery Attempts (Rule 14.4)

• Unit's base morale
  
• -1 if demoralized
  
• can be increased +1 or +2 if activated by an undemoralized leader with morale modifier (Rule 14.41)
  
• +1 if attempt is made in town hex or entrenchment (Rule 14.45)
  
• passes if 2d6 result is less than morale
  
• full recovery on 2d6 = 2 (Rule 14.43)
  

Note that hex terrain has no effect on morale checks, only on morale recovery attempts.

Hope that helps!
