Rule 9 - Combat at edge of BUA

The garrison of the town are being attacked by two brigades. The attackers are outside the BUA template so Rule 9 will apply. The attackers will get plus 2 for being a garrison, but minus 2 for outnumbered 2 to 1.

Background
This rule applies only when one player is outside and the other inside
If the attacker gains entry rule 10 applies
Note that the player with the higher combat factor can still lose the combat
