[1.05b3] Concentric attack bonus

I attacked with a light infantry brigade (HQ), it's 5 battalions and attached recon battalion, from 5 sides. Concentric attack bonus should have been 150%, for first 3 rounds it was 75%. After 3rd round 2nd and 5th battalion panicked and on the 4th round the bonus was 150% like it should have been. The number of attacking sides didn't change. Later in the battle as more attackers peeled off the bonus was reduced as expected. Was the game thinking one of the battalions that panicked were not part of the brigade?

Edit: Also, on the HQ unit the bonus from offensive tactics was applying only to some of the attacks made. Seemed to work right elsewhere.

Maybe you had mixed HQ Units in the attack? and Units of one HQ redrew ?

Went back for an autosave, it can be recreated. Battle preview shows +150% expected concentric attack bonus, but you get +75% instead. Not including HQ in the attack seems to fix it, apparently the HQ isn't a part of it's brigade.

Yes involving the HQ in the fighting changes the focus of its commander to the more nearby dangers :)
