Can 6 tomb king chariots disrupt units if run 3x2? The "chariot legions" special rule doesn't explicitly say this like the "monstrous ranks" rule does, but it seems like they should be the same. It would be a shame if they could get rank bonus at 3 models per rank, but could only disrupt units at 5 models per rank.

unless someone can find another rule i am not aware of you are correct chariots have to be 5x2 to disrupt a rank.

The TK rulebook states "Chariots only need three models to count for rank bonus" but doesn't say anything else (like most of the others). Every other unit that needs 3 wide to count as a rank disrupts like monstrous infantry and something is said about them being like monstrous infantry.

As such I think that all logic says that 3 wide chariots can disrupt and they don't need to be 5 wide.

The rules dont say that, however

the rules dont say having a rank bonus, they say 5 models, unless they are monsterous infantry/calvary which need 3. chariots are monsterous.

sorry brain and fingers didnt align meant to say "not monsterous".

Well some are but not these ones

Well I guess that it's a minimum of 10 chariots to disrupt ranks, at least until they change the rules (maybe?). So basically never... oh well.
