Hey gents, have a pile in question. The rules for pile in is that an engaged model moves up to 3 inches to pile in at his initiative. I couldnt find where the rules might say if modifiers like unwieldy weapons would slow this. So i guess which is the proper way for a space marine with a power ax to pile in, at I4 with the rest or I1 when he actually can swing?

From the FAQ:

Q: Does a model with an Unwieldy weapon Pile In at its
normal Initiative step and then fight at Initiative step 1?
(p22/23)
A: No – it Piles In and fights at Initiative step 1.

I think it already said the above in the original rule book.

thank you for the replies and refs!
