So just want to confirm I am playing this right and think we have touched this subject before.
Let's say I want an opponent unit to be in combat. I choose to charge with an infantry unit (small bases) and monstrous cavalry(large bases) unit so at least one will make it.
Both make the charge.
Is it possible to put/move the larger based unit first so its in the way and failed the smaller based unit?
I am under the impression that the charges happen at the same time and you maximize the number of models.
“MULTIPLE CHARGES ON A UNIT
If several units have declared a charge against a single unit, then roll the charge distance of these units at the same time. The charge moves of the charging units must be made as far as possible to equalise the number of models fighting from each charging unit. Remember, however, that your primary goal is always to maximise the number of models fighting – it is acceptable to have more models fighting from one unit than from another, if to do otherwise would reduce the overall number of models fighting.
On occasion, exceptional dice rolls from charging units might mean that more units can complete the charge than can fit in base contact with the target. When this happens, the controlling player of the charging units must nominate which units complete the charge. Those units that cannot complete the charge against the target are counted as having made a failed charge.”
