Terrain & Combat

Rulebook

Should a charging unit ever be unable to align to the enemy due to the presence of impassable terrain, the charging unit has made a disordered charge. In addition, should it prove impossible to align the units once contact has been made, causing a gap to be left, the charging unit becomes Disrupted.

Impassable terrain is any terrain that completely blocks movement. This includes rock spires, deep rivers, sheer cliffs and most buildings, as well as high linear obstacles such as castle walls and fortifications. Impassable terrain cannot be crossed during the course of a battle – units must go around it. In addition, if it is not possible to align a charging unit to the enemy unit due to the presence of impassable terrain, the charging unit has made a disordered charge.

Impassable Terrain

Impassable Terrain (Combat)

With the foe outmanoeuvred and weakened by spellcraft and shooting, it is time to finish the job! The Combat phase is when your warriors hack, slice and pummel their way through the enemy ranks. A successful Combat phase can completely change the fortunes of your army and, if you have prepared well in your earlier phases, victory is likely to be your reward. The Combat phase heavily involves both players, although the active player will be the one choosing the order in which each of the combats is fought and resolved. All combats must be resolved during this phase – a unit engaged in combat with the enemy cannot choose not to fight.
