Moving characters inside an unit

Welcome!

There are no specific restrictions on the position of a character in the front rank - nor of the command group, for that matter. The members of the CG do not need to be positioned in the middle, nor, indeed, next to each other; they just need to be in the front rank (if possible).

Apart from Make Way! and challenges, there are a number of ways a character can change his position, but normally with the restrictions that he must be placed in the front rank, if a space is available, and that he cannot move more than twice his Movement rate.

1. Simply during a normal move
2. During a reform
3. During a combat reform (with the added restriction that all models that were in CC need to remain in CC)

BRB Official Update Version 1.9, p.11:
Q: Can characters change position inside a unit as part of a normal move?(p97)
A: Yes, as long as they end up in the rank closest to the front of the unit that has a space in. It is also worth remembering that even if only the character moves the whole unit will count as moving that turn. Having a belligerent officer barge his way through the unit is not conducive to a good round of shooting!
