Hello
I did participate a few weeks ago in my first DBA 3.0 tournament, and it was too my first games with this ruleset (I precise I am an experienced DBM player).
During a game, I was advancing with my blades toward a group of bows. Lined behind these bows, were a group of blades. My opposing player when my blades were close to his bows but not yet contacting them, did withdraw its bows behind its blades, refering to the interpenetration rule p9 where it said that bows can recoil into blades. For me, a recoiler, is an element recoiling following a shooting or close combat action, otherwise it is just a plain interpenetration movement, and so for me this movement was illegal. I did ask the umpire if this movement was legal and he said it was, that it was accepted like this on this forum.
I did some search but I did not find any thread supporting this view, it would rather be the opposite.
But maybe I have not looked whell enough, hence my question to the community : can bows interpenetrate with a backward movement blades or is it just allowed after a shooting or close combat that the bows loose generating a recoil movement ? Of course this would apply to all recoilers mentionned in the interpenetrating troops paragraph.
Yours sincerely
Claude
