I have just had a good game of BBDBA based on Nicopolis 1396. I think we got it mainly right apart from forgetting the once per game +1 bonus for the general in a combat!
One issue we were not sure about was when an element in a demoralised command could not be held in place by PIPS and had to flee towards the nearest point of its base edge. Sometimes such an element would contact a friendly element that was either in the same command and was being held in place by PIPS or by an element from another, non-demoralised command. The usual rules for fleeing elements meeting friendly elements are that they stop and line up. This meant that they could stop fleeing towards the table edge and so avoid increasing the the pool of destroyed elements.
Is this how others play it? I sort of felt they ought to take minimal evasive action and keep on running unless colliding with friendly element represents a temporary rally.
Cheers
