Unit nearest the enemy takes 2d6 attacks, are these from the front/rear/side? The unit in question was behind a wall so it was either 6 or 4, so we compromised on 5.

I'd the line of fire as coming form the nearest enemy, so of that crosses cover/hedge etc, the unit would get the benefit of it.

It's a blunder,
Surely it's from your own base edge...

Why would you give a blunder unit a cover bonus? Defeats the fun of the blunder.

I think the argument is

a> the fire is friendly so comes from the rear

or

b. the fire is from the enemey but as the result of command blunder so comes from the front

I think our compromise might be the best solution.

We assume it's friendly so it's just normal fire: 4+ to hit. Saves etc all normal.
