Defending Walls?

[jretzer1]

Try as I might, I can’t find anything about defending walls and the like. Would the defender get a 1 bonus for defense against shooting and combat?

Refer to page 61, Terrain and Combat section – the attacker has their Combat Ability reduced by 1. Similar for Shooting at a target behind a wall but be mindful of the notes in the Line of Sight and Shooting section on the same page in the previous column.

To a greater extent, before the game begins you should decide on how terrain will affect your game, based on the information and suggestions provided in the Terrain section. I did this because everyones terrain is different!
However also bear in mind that most Ancient battles were fought without much terrain or with lots when one side was at a disadvantage (typically outnumbered) and again this is explained in the terrain section.

I did start work on a supplement/ rules pack for fighting in settlements and sieges, this is still ongoing.

Hope that all helps, any other questions please ask!
