A rules question...

[Rhox]

Hey, this is probably a really stupid question and I think I know the answer, but my friend isn't sure. For a standard troop for example, can it move 6 in. and then assault another 6 in. or not?
Thanks.

[Overread]

page 15 details the movement range for units
page 37 details the charging distance for units
both page refrences refer to the main hardback rules book

Yes

Yes, as long as it hasn't fired a rapid fire weapon. In that case it can only move, not assault (charge into combat) that turn.
If it intends to fire a heavy weapon it may not move at all during the turn.
If you have an assault weapon, you can move, shoot, and then charge into assault on the same turn.

Hope that clears things up a bit!
