8th Ed. reform after pursue

[theodoris]

I would like to know if you can reform when you caught the enemy unit when you pursue them after you won the combat.

I would say no, you can only do an reform from combat if you elected to restrain and did not pursue.

We had this dicusion but could`t find an awnser.

sorry for my bad english

You are correct - if you pursue then you cannot reform after catching the opponent. If you restrain, then you can reform but the fleeing unit gets away.

 

[Stonecutter]

There is one exception to what Strewart has indicated but it is very rare but I just had it happen recently. As per page 58 of the CRB, if the pursuit move takes you into an already fleeing enemy then you are allowed to a final reform after the enemy unit is destroyed.
