Defending while disengaging?
I have a vague memory of this and not sure if this was a rule change or a house rule someone mentioned or a hexagram article.
That is, that a character may choose to defend in the turn that he intends to disengage. Does anyone remember this? If sp. it is this official? |

Re: Defending while disengaging?
Drives me crazy that I can never find this in the rules when I go to look it up, but isn't there something about a +1 adjDX for waiting a turn to make an attack, up to a limit of 2 turns? I think that might be the thing that can be combined with the Defend option, but I'm not sure. Incidentally, it's not under Aimed Shots or Delayed Actions, although such a rule sounds like it would be logically under those sections.
Of course no sooner than I posted the above, I located it. It's the very last thing in the very long section headed "Special Situations", falling on p 127 of ITL: Quote:

My memory is that it was a rule change that was being considered. Or I guess it was a house rule. In any case, no one here remembers means it must have not come from here and not official.
