Impetuous After charges have been declared, if any Impetuous units did not declare a charge but are within charge range of an enemy, then they must take a LD test to restrain themselves from charging. If this test is failed, they are forced to charge. If the test is passed, they may move normally.
So reckless are the Knights Errant that whenever they charge, they are Immune to Psychology and may re-roll one of their charge distance dice.
The Lance Formation Any Cavalry unit with this rule may deploy in the Lance formation and/or reform into it during the game. A unit in Lance formation follow the rules for Ranks and Supporting Attacks that apply to Monstrous Cavalry. In effect, if by any means a unit of Bretonnian Knights is formed into a unit three models wide, it is treated as being in Lance formation. Note that if a unit is ever wider than three models, it no longer counts as being in Lance Formation. In addition to this, the unit may form a unit up to 5 ranks deep.
A Damsel or Prophetess may be placed in the centre of the second rank of the Lance formation rather than the front rank, as the Knights form up protectively around her. Note that she remains fully in play even if she is not in the front rank (so the unit may use her LD, she may cast magic, etc.). If a second Damsel or Prophetess joins the unit, she may be placed in the centre of the third rank. If the rank in front of the Damsel or Prophetess ever falls below three models, she will move forward to take up the empty space. However, a Damsel or Prophetess that is not in the front rank obviously has no line of sight.
On a turn that a unit in Lance Formation makes a successful charge, all models with this rule make Supporting Attacks with an extra rank. In addition, they add their current Rank Bonus to the S of the Impact Hits they inflict. Finally, if the unit wins that round of combat, it also counts as having double their actual Unit Strength for the purpose of determining if the enemy unit is Steadfast or not.
