Charging into the enemy gives a considerable advantage, which is increased when charging into an enemy's vulnerable flank or rear. To represent this, every model within a charging unit modifies its Initiative characteristic for the remainder of that turn (to a maximum of 10):

• Charging an enemy in their front arc: +1 Initiative per full inch moved (prior to making contact), to a maximum of +3.
• Charging an enemy in their flank or rear arc: +1 Initiative per full inch moved (prior to making contact), to a maximum of +4.
