Lt. Brookman STFU and Color Van Evok AFAIK, you remove nearest models first, and (with the exclusion of weaposn that ignore LOS) can't kill what is out of sight (behind a rhino, for example) so no more getting combat squad behind a razorback and exposing only the missile launcher guy - if you want him to live at least... when unit is aprtially in cover, you can order focused fire on models in the open (or lesser cover) to avoid cover saves entirely, but you can't kill the models that stay in cover then I can smell focused fire being the source of many arguments. It won't unless you are being very, very a**l about it. What you see is what you kill, simple as that. If your squad cannot see a model, it cannot engage it. If you can see it, or bits of it, you can shoot it. People who argue about this deserve a crowbar to the f*cking teeth. I've seen worse at tournaments. Dx

I remember in "good old times" it involved suggestively batting your off-hand palm with a metal dereadnought...

Can anyone clarify the situation of assaulting multible enemy units in cases of a single model, small/medium/large and/or monsterous creatures (ie, Avatar, Deamon Prince, Dreadknight);
Since in the case of regular units with multible models, the model can only move into base-contact with the secondary target if it is unable to move into base-contact with the Primary target, are single model units capable to peform an multible-combat charge and in case of a large based models, will other units that would come into base-contact with said assaulting large-based model that move into base contact with a primary target, ever be counted as being assaulted? neutral

Which is EXTREMELY unlikely, but possible if enemy mixes the formations of 2 squads, for example... ABABABAB xxx xxx A, B defending squads x charging large model

ABABABAB xxx xxx A, B defending squads x charging large model I thought as much, I fear there might be a possebility of screwing oppoments change of assaulting in CC by fooling an oppoment to think he has a change to charge a primary target and get second target aswell by mixing the units together. neutral

It is semi-official people, I asked about the rule with a local gw-store;
Single model units, as the rules currently are, are incapable of peforming a multible combat assault. The rules currently does not support such possebility and made me realise I may have found a way to break the game by making single model units unable to assault any infantry units during the match while getting Overwatches for FREE.
Just by having 2 units mixed together in a way they would support 2 models per model, ie; YXYXY XYXYX YXYXY XYXYX
Since rules state that, if a unit beforms a multi-combat-assault, he must nominate which is Primary and which is Secondary. Since the lone model itself is unit, he (as a primary assaultee) must move into base contact with Primary unit with the shortest route, but cannot move into base contact with the Secondary unit. He can only move to Secondary unit if he couldn´t not reach the Primary unit, but in his case, that is not an option.
Cannot move into BSB-contact with Primary without being in BSB-contact with Secondary + Cannot move into BB-contact with Secondary since he IS the primary assaultee and therefore must move into BSB-contact with the Primary = Automatic Failed Charge, Free Overwatch from BOTH units.
This hasn´t been tested, but I would consider this being possebility. <.<"

If GW supports this tactic, it alone would make up with all the anti-Ork rule changes (such as the change in the Fleet nerfing Power of the WAAAGH, Overwatch (which is actually heavily weighted against Orks), Focus Fire (hard to get such a large mob completely in cover while on the move), and the changes in wound allocation (nerfs Biker Nobs, formerly the best unit in the game))... ...but then GW will see that it give Ork players a genuine advantage and write an Obvious Rule Patch: Emperor forbid that the Orks actually be competitive in sixth-ed...

The orks do possess one of the older army books now, I think we can all rest assured that they will be fixed. Sooner or later.

Maybe, we´ll just have to wait see what GW thinks about it. ninja Is there a email address where I could send this conumdrum to? sweatdrop I miss the official GW-Forum. sad Lady Blodwynn The orks do possess one of the older army books now, I think we can all rest assured that they will be fixed. Sooner or later. And Black Templars. Let´s not forget the black knights. sweatdrop And aren´t they the oldest codex by publication? neutral
