Warmachine MK2
Reach extends the melee range of a model from .5" out to 2". This usually means a few things:
- Reach increases what players refer to as a model's Threat Range, i.e. the range at which they can hit a target with a charge attack.
- Reach extends the area wherein a model can take freestrikes. Enemy models who want to get behind the model with Reach are most concerned by this.
- Reach will sometimes give models in melee combat MORE room to maneuver rather than less, since freestrikes are triggered when you leave melee combat.
- Reach makes it easier to create situations where a model with ranged attacks cannot fire without leaving combat, or for a model gain a defensive bonus for being in melee combat.
