So the situation was 5 knights and 1 mounted hero (effectively a unit of 6 knights for simplicities sake) charging 2 bases of TK swarms. I charged from an angle and he ranked up against me, I will try to explain below;
Initial charge:
S
S
K K K K K K
He then ranked up thus:
S S
KKKKKK
Allowing 5 models to attack
I felt he should have ranked up thus:
S S
KKKKKK
Which would have allowed 6 knights to attack.
We interpreted the rules differently as the BRB under charging a skirmisher say that they "rank up as above", presumably referring to the previous pageabout ranking up for a charge, but that just says the charger (i.e. the Skirmisher) has to maximise their frontage.
Could someone please clarify this situation as he was saying that where the first touch happened that model does not move the others just rank up around them, in which case this could happen:
SS
KKKKKK
putting only 3 knights into combat.
I won the combat but would like this clarified as if he is right I need to be a bit more careful with my charges (as I could have hit with any part of the unit).
