Blocked Path

To prevent abusive situations where a unit cannot Charge a nearby enemy unit due to a convoluted positioning of enemy units the following rules are applied.

Blocked Path can be applied against enemy units that fulfill the following criteria:

  • The enemy unit is directly in front of your unit. This means that the first obstacle (other unit or Impassable Terrain) that a straight forward move of your unit would hit is the enemy unit, and

  • Your unit would be unable to perform a Charge Move to get into contact with the Target Facing of the enemy unit.

In this situation, your unit may Declare a Charge against the enemy unit, and if the enemy does not Flee, you may choose any Facing of the enemy unit as the Target Facing (and perform a Charge Move as normal against this chosen Target Facing).
