Infantry in square and Battle Back was created by Achtung-Panzer

Have I got this sequence right?:

1. Cavalry attack infantry unit. Infanttry unit forms square
2. Infantry roll 1 die against cavalry. If not detroyed or retreat, cavalry melee with 1 die
3. If not destroyed, unfantry Battle Back with 1 die

So the infantry unit gets two chances to battle?

All good until step 3, ignore that bit as there's no battle back.

cheers,

Dave.

Ah, I thought there was always a Battle Back at the end of each melee. Thanks for the clarification.

Generally true but the exceptions are First Strike and squares where the defender goes 1st, at all other times the attacker goes 1st.

Additional question:

If an CAV can´t retreat after a FLAG of a INF, because retreat hexes are blocked, can the CAV still battle back, if it is not eliminated?

Answer:Yes they can still battle back.

My dice are the hell!

Yes they take a hit and may battle.

This works the same as any other battle.

OK, now we hope, GG also believe me

The simple summary are:

1. If a unit retreat/leave there hex, indifferent which rules, they
CAN´T battle back.

2. If a unit stay in there hex, indifferent which rules, they
CAN battle back.
