Equipping the Murder Sword lord with either a steed, bike, or jump packs could easily circumvent that issue...
I mean the back of the unit, not the field. You need to make base contact, not just be in the same fight. Improved mobility doesn't change the fact that intelligent positioning will keep the target out of base, since your lord is making his pile in movement very early on, and that wargear doesn't modify the pile in movement. As long as the target is more than 3" from the front rank of his unit, or otherwise behind models, it's impossible for your lord to make a legal pile in to get base contact. He bases your lord with chumps, then piles his character in elsewhere.
Don't worry too much here. If the enemy character is not in base contact, then you could go for a challenge. A Lord with
MoS has I6 and with the murder sword will eventually slay the enemy before he can swing back.
Unless the challenge is accepted by a Termie champion with
PF and just kill your lord at I1 with the
PF on the first challenge round, a warpsmith would work as well but would take a few turns to take the lord down
