Hi I have just started playing WOTR, I was previously a serious SBG player but i decided to give WOTR a go.

I read in the rules if a formation looses half of its models it has to be taken off the board?
Is this true or not. If so this is a bit silly as 5 formations in a game wouldnt go very far.

Thanks guys:)

No if the last company in a formation lost 5 of its models(infatry) or 1(cavalry)then flee the battle.

when it says half, its talking about the command company, only when it finally gets reduced to half str

as he says, when your left with the command company and half of them die. pretty sure it sais that in the rules

Thankyou guys! that makes everything alot cleaer now:)

Also, take a look at the Panic table. If you lose a combat and roll a 1 (onset of dismay) you have to roll a courage test. If you fail and have less than half of your formation then the rest of the formation dies too.
