Carried Wounded Leader

[turlusiflu]

A17.2 MOVEMENT: A wounded man is reduced to three MF (even if berserk/during the RtPh) except while being carried by any form of conveyance (in which case he is considered to have 4 MF), has an IPC of zero, and cannot Double Time. A SMC who becomes wounded (e.g., by Defensive First Fire) after already expending > 3 MF is pinned. A Good Order wounded man who is not portaging a SW may be carried by any Good Order MMC at a cost of five PP. A wounded leader's two MF bonus for accompaniment throughout the MPh still applies.

1. Does "conveyance" exclude a MMC in this case?
2. Does a MMC have to roll for recovery in order to carry a wounded leader?
3. If a MMC carrying a wounded leader makes Double Time, do they have 5MF or 4 MF available?

 

[Robin Reeve]

1. Yes.
2. No.
3. The leader adds the 2MF bonus : moving normally 4 MF. The leader cannot help carry 1 PP.

1. The leader adds the 2MF bonus : moving normally 4 MF. The leader cannot help carry 1 PP.

The leader weights 5 PP, so a CX MMC (IPC 2) would normally move 6-3=3MF, +2MF for leader bonus would total 5 MF
