1) the formation still counts as having BMs, so the opponent gets a +1 on resolution 2) contacted is base to base Once ZoC is entered you havr to use your charge move to base the closest enemy if you can. Attacks are pooled, so we roll by to-hit value. Kills from support count towards resolution, unlrss they're Grotz. |

So if you don't have enough movement to reach base to base, then you can't enter a ZoC? |

you can, if you end up drawing a combat, if you couldn't enter ZoC you could never BTB anything with a 5cm countercharge |

Does this draw the unmarked blue marines into the assault, giving them a counter charge with their tacticals and rhinos(5 and 10cm, respectively), and bringing them in as members of the assault? If you do end up inside the ZoC but unable to make base to base, do you not fight? Do you use your firefight? , if you have one? What if this happens on your initial engagement movement? |

It doesn't suppress a unit, and it doesn't count against the unit in the assault, right? The Marine formation would still be at -1 for its activation roll if it still has the BM when it next activates. The Marine formation would not get the +1 for having no BMs in combat resolution (Epic-Uk go with the simpler rule of round down to a minimum of 1). In your example Blues would get +1 for no BMs but Reds would not get the +1 in combat resolution. This is covered in the section 5.1.1 Quote: The Red marines could counter-charge, but don't. The dismounted red Tactical marines can't really reach anything with a 5cm move. However, I guess their rhinos could move out to get in range to lend their fire fight to the coming assault. Side Question: When is an enemy unit "contacted" during counter charges? If enemies end in their Zone of Control? If I understand this question correctly it is when base contact is made not just getting into a zone of control. Quote: How do you handle situations where a unit can't get in base to base, but can get into Zone of Control? Do they stop at the edge of ZoC and firefight, do they stop at Zoc and do nothing, do they move closer, but then do nothing? Counter charges follow the same rules as charge moves so the rules for entering zones of control are the same. Once you enter a ZofC you must attempt to get into base contact but you stop if you run out of movement. Making Base contact = CC not in base contact = FF . Only drag in other formations if base contact is made (not just entering ZofC). Quote: Rolling attacks: Do I have to roll attacks individually, or as a unit? Particularly, if some of the defending units are outside of the range for some of the attacking units, does that mean that I have to roll those attacks individually? Attacks are pooled together by type (MW, Lance, Disrupt, normal and so on). War Engines have slightly different rules for allocating hits so these may need to be rolled separate. Quote: Next, Supporting fire: The unmarked blue company can lend supporting fire. Do casualties from this count as inflicted in the assault when working out the result, or do they just kill off models, which could influence outnumbering? Casualties from support fire count towards combat resolution. |
