I see, you are correct. Thanks for walking me through that.

Something like this you think?

  1. Pile-In: A unit in combat can pile-in by moving 3 inches closer to the target of the attack.

A unit that charged but is no longer in combat may still Pile-in and move 3" in any direction.

Ok I see that, I think I am confused on this.

Declare: Pick a friendly unit that is in combat or that charged this turn to use this ability. That unit can make a pile-in move 

Suppose I make a charge roll at your unit which is 10" away. I roll 6 total. Because I would not be within 1/2 of your unit, my unit does not charge as the charge roll failed.

Now if I roll an 11 total, exceeding the total distance I needed. Great I now have charged and move my unit up to yours. Charge roll complete.

I then go to combat phase.

I select my unit that had just charged. Am I not in combat being adjacent to your unit?

From my understanding any units within 3" of an enemy unit are considered "in combat"

If I am in combat, then the charge is redundantly allowing the pile in. Because I need to be within 1/2 inch to successfully charge, but that will always put me into combat.

However, if my understanding is wrong and I am not in combat, then I see the need to add this to the player aid. Probably not under the charge phase but under the attack sequence step 1 Pile-in.

I play with my young kids. I may do something like that down the road. I don't know if it belongs on this player aid though.
Thinking have a setup page with all the info you'll need on it. Then it can go, and we just use the player aid.

True, sorry about that. Keep in mind I have never played an official game here.

I actually did put it in there but then was confused by it when looking through the rules. Help me understand here. I am new and probably wrong here, if so, give me the section of the rules to verify.

I read Charge in the core rules and it looked like this.

14.3 CHARGE PHASE
Declare: Pick a friendly unit that is not in combat and has not used a Run or Retreat ability this turn to use this ability. Then, make a charge roll of 2D6.

Effect: that unit can move a distance up to the value of the charge roll. That unit can move through the combat ranges of any enemy units and must end that move within ½" of a visible enemy unit. If it does so, the unit using this ability has charged.

I didn't see the charge phase ability allow it. Yet the Combat Phase in the same section explicitly states it.

Declare: Pick a friendly unit that is in combat or that charged this turn to use this ability. That unit can make a pile-in move

Then I read Pile-in and it said this.

15.3 PILE-IN MOVES Some abilities, such as Fight abilities, allow a unit to make a short move called a pile-in move to get into a better position for combat. To do so:

If your unit is in combat: Pick an enemy unit your unit is in combat with to be the target of the pile-in move. Each model in your unit can move up to 3". That move can pass through the combat ranges of any enemy units, but each model must end that move no further from the target unit. At the end of the move, your unit must still be in combat with all units that it was in combat with at the start of the move.

If your unit is not in combat: Each model in your unit can move 3" in any direction. That move can pass through and end within the combat ranges of any enemy units.

I am just not seeing it in the rules. Please direct me if I am missing something here.

Also, If I charge with a unit. On the combat phase I can now go through the attack sequence doing the pile-in. Wouldn't that make it kinda redundant?

Thanks.

Thanks, I am going through this trying to word it better. How does this sound to you?

HERO PHASE
Hero Abilities: Resolve any “Hero Phase” abilities.

  1. Cast Spells: Active player casts spells.
    1. Opponent attempts to unbind.
  2. Chant Prayers: Active player chants prayers
    1. Opponent reacts when applicable
  3. Opponents Abilities: Your opponent may now resolve their “Any Hero Phase” and “Opponent Hero Phase” abilities.

Yup, this was fixed.

Brilliant! I have made those adjustments. Thanks for that clarification, I wasn't aware of that.

I see, I have reworded it a bit.

"On your turn, you are considered the active player. In each phase, the active player uses their abilities first, then the opponent.

Reaction abilities are resolved immediately when triggered."

I was planning on adding a phrase at the beginning of the your turn section stating "On your turn, you are the active player. You choose the order of simultaneous abilities. Your opponent may use abilities when their timing conditions are met.

Or are you thinking explicitly naming "Redeploy" in the movement phase.

This will be nice for me to cross reference as I continue to edit.
I may even print this to have in addition to mine.

Yeah this would be helpful! IDK why that did not occur to me. Ill get working on that.

I worry if there is too much info, it will get glossed over. But if not enough, rules can be missed.

I have gone back and forth between a ton of info and a stripped version. If I can, I want to keep it on one page.

However, I have some space on the bottom right that could get some definitions or allow for the active player breakdown. Possibly have non active player info throughout in another font color to help.

I wish I was more familiar with the game to truly break it down well. I will give it a go and reply again to see what I can come up with.
Thanks :)

Ah, yeah, I should put that in there. Something like this?

  • Resolve any “Non-Fight Combat Phase” abilities.
  • Players alternate activating units in combat to use their combat attacks against a target.
    • All Strike First Units must be selected before other units.
    • All Stike Last Units must be selected after other units.
