Never mind the Billhooks

[SHARPE52]

Hi All,
I have played a couple of games with a friends and we have enjoyed them really much.
Even if with the addition of FAQ sheet things are quite clear there are still some questions I would like to ask to those who have greater experience.
1) Have paired formations to be decided before the battle and never changed again during the game or may them loosen and reformed at will?
2) When archers in a combined block with bills or pikes are charged and evade may be simply swapped with no disarray markers for both units or are there any penalties?
3) When reforming a unit with one disarray marker and a daunted marker how many actions are needed and which order are they removed?
TIA for helping me.
Cheers
Marco

Paired formations were originally supposed to permanent, but "by popular demand" I am going introduce a "Split a formation" rule - so it will be possible, but treated as a "Special Action" (see rules p13, col2). A second FAQ document is due on the Wargames illustrated site in the next few days and it will be spelled out there.
There are no penalties for evading archers through a paired unit of Bills or men at arms (rules page 18, bottom of Col1 and top of column 2. Archers in a mixed block are an exception to the usual "evaders are disarrayed" rule.
Rallying off a disarray token takes 1 action, rallying off a daunted token takes 2 actions (FAQ document, page 2, Column 1, 2nd question). Since a unit only has two actions in a turn you should rally off the daunted token first. 
There is a Never Mind the Billhooks Facebook page where I try and answer any rules questions, so please consider joining.

Andy,
Thank you for replying to my questions.
I take this opportunity for telling you that I like these rules very much.
I'll join the FB for sure.
