Ok.  My local epic group meets every other thursday at the Chicago Battle Bunker, this week I didn't go because I'm getting over a cold, and I received a phone call from one of the guys asking me an interesting rules question.  He thought that he had read somewhere in the rules or some of the errata that a unit that marches cannot control an objective.  I looked through the recently released updated rulebook and couldn't find anything.  Was he wrong to think that there was a rule like that?

That was actually a rule in the pre-released playtest rules from *years* ago, but was not incorporated into the published rules or any of the errata documents, nor in any of the NetEA suggestions.

It's fine as a house rule though and many people enjoy playing with that restriction.

as it stand you can march and control / contest  objectives. the only restriction is you may not lend FF support.

It has come up on here recently in one of the many "I got beat by Tactic A, Tactic A sucks and is broken let's ban it" threads.
