21.21 OLD:The affects of legion facing.

Legions can be facing in any of the usual directions, or have no specific facing if they have recently been assembled. You can order legions to face in a specific direction by using the ORDER <legion> FACE <direction> command. After marching, legions will be facing in the direction that they marched. When you wish a legion to assail another, it must first be facing in the direction that you wish it to assail in. When a legion is attacked by another, if it is attacked on its front, it will fight as normal. If attacked from the side, it will fight with two thirds of its usual strength. If attacked from the rear, it will fight with one third its usual strength.
