Just a quick question about reforms.

Under the section in the rulebook for reforms, it mentions that under reforms, models cannot move more than twice their movement allowance during the reform. For me, this would imply that a reform is movement and normally you can move up to twice the allowance as it would be the same as marching but instead of moving the whole unit stays in place and the models move to face a new direction and a new formation but in a sense still moved.

The reason I'm asking the question pertains specifically to Fast Cavalry which has an unlimited number of reforms in their movement.

Is the movement allowed in the reform contained only to the reform or to total movement allowed in a single movement phase?

I'm pretty sure it's the same as Skirmishers. They're allowed to any number of reforms during movement - But no model may move more than twice it's Move value.

Thank you. This just confirms what I already thought but two people on other boards appear to be under the impression that the moves are independent of one another.

I took a closer read in the BRB, and it's pretty clear. No model may end up more than twice it's Mov. from where it started.

Yep, fast cavalry have explicit statements about not ending up more than twice their M value

Skirmishers too i believe.
