greetings!
recently, we had a rather strange assault phase down at the local gw store;
1) a unit of chaos space marines & a chaos lord were already in combat with a crusader squad & assault squad. everyone was in cover.
2) a unit of khorne berserkers assaulted into both the templar squads due to how they had sourounded the chaos marines in the previous round. the 'zerkers had frag grenades.
so, the way we thought it should go is that the 'zerkers & all templars fighting them would strike at I10. (frags + assaulting into cover)
however! there were templars in contact with both the chaos lord & 'zerkers. so would the templars have the choice of fighting the 'zerkers at I10 or else striking after the I5 lord?
to compound matters further, the templars had the suffer not... vow which gave them all a -1I penalty. (we decided not to hamper the templars further though, as the poor kid was getting thrashed quite badly!)
however, under "normal" instances, would the vow then mean that the templars would fight the 'zerkers at I9 instead of 10?!
it was quite the show really as it worked out to a total of 3 chaos units vs. 2 templar units all involved in the same combat. :shock:
thanks for the help!
cheers!
