Fig 123.1 - The distance a model moves is measured from the front of its base. The model is then moved and the front of its base placed in line with the end of the tape measure.

The most basic move any model or unit can make is to move forward a number of inches up to its Movement characteristic, as shown in Fig 123.1. If there is more than one Movement characteristic within a unit, the entire unit moves at the rate of the slowest model. Units arrayed in rank and file are cumbersome, and find it hard to change direction. Models (and units) must move forward in a straight line, unless performing a manoeuvre. 

Basic Movement

Moving an army is an important and often decisive part of the game. When opposing commanders are well matched, move and counter move can become complex and challenging as the rival armies search for an advantage. This section begins with the rules for basic movement and manoeuvre, before delving into the intricacies of charging and fleeing. Finally, you will find an explanation of how different types of battlefield terrain can hinder, or even halt, movement.
