I play BT and if I saw that coming at my squad I'd chalk my termies up as dead. You got hosed by the dice plain and simple. I would not, as some advised earlier, to charge into a a collection of assault termies though. They'll eat the 'zerks and ask for a second squad.

I'd expect my 8 Zerkers and PW champ to eat at least 4 termies (assault or otherwise). If I then lose three or four in return that keeps me safe from shooting in his phase then that's not a bad trade. Mop up, consolidate and repeat next turn against something more squishy.

Charging them into the heart of a well supported army though, that'd be different.
