How are assaults ordered? Do you declare all at the beginning of the assault phase, or can you declare one, move the models, then do the other? Mostly wondering because of gun lines, if there's a screening unit spread out so that you don't have a direct path to the unit behind it, can you have another unit assault the screening unit, forcing it's consolidation into CC to pull it out of the way, and then assault with the original unit? Or do you have to declare all at the same time so they are effectively blocked from getting to the rear unit (outside of declaring multiple assault)? Can you declare an assault against the hidden unit in anticipation of it being moved out of the way?

The other player doesn't move his models until you're done moving all of yours.

There's an Assault Phase Summary on page 33 of the rulebook that lays out the order explicitly.
