When the War Altar charges into combat (and only when it charges) the sounding of the Horn strikes terror into the charged enemy unit. Terror is caused on the charged unit exactly as described in the Warhammer rulebook. Note that this only affects the unit being charged, and not any other enemy units within 6".
