Ok. I've looked and looked, and I might just be not seeing it because it isn't there... but I want to verify.

What types of units, if any, does a chariot *take* impact hits from charging? I think I remember someone saying the Stank caused this to happen. How about if a Chariot charges a Chariot? Any other units that will cause this?

Thanks!

Couldn't speak to the STank, but a chariot wouldn't take impact hits from charging another chariot.

the only time a chariot takes impact hits is when it hits terrain. Not when it charges anything else.

The stank does in fact deal impact hits to chariots that charge it. Other than that, it's just when you hit woods.

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

Any kind of difficult terrain, IIRC.

The fact that it also takes the same kind of hits when charging a steam tank is a special rule of the stank. No other unit have this rule, as far as I can recall.
