Hey guys!

I was playing last week and me and partner ad some different about the ruins rules. There is not a lots of explication in the Rulebook...

Is there a book where the ruins or building rules are more detail? Like city fight?

Please help me out!

Merry Christmas btw!

Ok, here's more explication...

I was near a ruins with no first floor and only a second and a 3 floor. 3 floor was all occupied by enemy models and no models where on second floor... Normally a floor is 3'' right? How can i get in close combat if i am not able to fit any models on base contact with my enemy (the floor where is model is all occupied)? i need to kill some of is unit to be able to fit a least one models in base to base? Who can fight if nobody is in base to base? And for the distance its 6'' to charge two floor higher (3'' per floor) + 2 inch to charge in difficult terrain?

Yes, normally a floor is 3". For some terrain, the gap will be larger or smaller, decide with your opponent how to treat it (either all floors are 3" apart regardless of actual distance, or all floors as the actual distance apart) before the game begins.

Technically, you can't get into CC if there is no room to place the model. Some places houserule that if you can make the charge, you're considered to be in b2b contact and may fight, again, check with your opponent before the game.

Yes, killing some of his models would be the normal way to ensure you have room to place your minis in b2b for a charge.

If nobody is in b2b, nobody can fight, but if at least 1 person is in b2b, I believe it's 6" coherency vertically, but I'm away from the main rule book at the moment, so please check that.

Yep, unless you and your opponent have settled on actual distance, charing up 2 floors when directly beneath the enemy model would be an 8" charge.

The rulebook...

6th edition rulebook ( + stonghold assault) if you like more fleshed out rules.
