61 11/23/2025 7:23:00 AM Summer 1861 Union Message About interceptions, rule 5.81 says:
"In a successful interception, the
whole force must move, not part of it. Exceptions: SPs in excess
of movement restrictions (on that type of force moved) must
remain behind. One SP may remain if a fort was present in the
space from which the interception occurred.

So I don't think you could choose to intercept with only 3SP.
