Yeah i know... probably should have moved them differently and charged one turn later as they were in the way

And more importantly, don't put the cheap chaff into a spot where it will block the charge of said monstrous unit leaving you no choice BUT to charge both in.

I realize I forgot about the differing base sizes.

In the above I would have charged the hounds into the small skaven unit hoping for an overrun into the next combat.

@ryryak do you agree with avatarofbugman that if I it is possible to use less number of models in combat by moving crushers to the right and it just maximizes after charges completes. To me, the important line in the book reads: "remember that you MUST bring as many models into base contact with the enemy as possible, from both sides!" (pg20 under move chargers, emphasis mine) I would say that you did things right with the dogs. This does unfortunately screw over larger base models a bit if you're charging them alongside smaller base ones. Lesson I would take home from this: Don't charge weak chaff into the same combat as monstrous units. In the skullcrusher case you don't want to be giving your opponent that easy combat res anyway! Indeed... Combo charge Necrosphinx and Warsphinx together..... brilliant. Combo charge Necrosphinx, Warsphinx and a unit of skeletons......... whoops! Found that out the hard way. Giving up combat res sucks even more for Tomb Kings.

The problem is that the dart is in the way of moving the rats more to the right.

Now i get what you mean, yes probably. I didn’t feel like doing all charges over from beginning when we finished argue about the rules I hade a very slow turn anyway with a lot of charges and planning.
