Need some input on an unusal move I saw last night--had never seen anything like it, but don't see anything in the rule book that prohibits it:
Situation: Beginning of RB 10/17 Date.
German player moves a stack into A9 as a "complex move".
Three units are in the stack--a leader, a first-line half-squad, and a
still to be revealed concealed unit. The concealed unit declares it is
using Assault Movement into A9, while the leader and HS declare DT.
Once in A9, the leader and HS split off separately---the HS goes to C9,
and the leader to C11 (getting bumped back to B10).
So here's what I am asking:
1) I am not questioning the ability to split a moving stack---that
appears to be quite legit.
2) Is it possible to move a stack with some units AMing and some NAMing,
and if not, what rule would apply?
3) If it is legit, what would be the benefit of doing it? I thought possibly to
gain the leader bonus to allow the concealed unit to AM (say if a MMC was
carrying a 5PP SW).
Thanks in advance,
