Evasive Movement

General
#1

Hi All

Does anyone know what the success for evasive movement is ?
The rules state that army size and commander rank has an influence.
I assume that smaller armies have better chance of slipping past other armies.

Do you generally succeed in getting past enemy armies, or is it more at 50/50 shot ?

I’m not sure about he actually success at all to be honest and I’ve actually got an additional question for evasive movement. Can you use it to shake-off agents who use the 905 scout army order ? i.e. it’s more difficult for an agent to follow an army if the army is moving evasively ?

Cheers

The old “Whispers” magazine had an article on evasive movement that answered these questions. Now that GSI’s assets have been purchased, perhaps Harley will reprint some of these articles.

I have scouted an evasively moving army under a regent before.

Well, I guess it is a question quiet hard to awnser, since you wouldn’t know if the 905 failed because the army moved ev or just failed, but since it says under the 905 order: “Succes is based on the size of the army, its movemnet mode,…” I guess ev movement will make the 905 order harder.

PS. If everything else fails, read the manual :wink:

Very dependant on command rank (also of enemy commander maybe) and size of both armies. You question is very hard to awnser any other way… Still hope it helps :slight_smile:

I dont even remember failing to scout an army though I have never tried with a non assassin.

Probably because lot of people don’t use the evasive movment, anyway
I think it all depends on how good your armycommander is vs the agent
who tries to follow.
