"An eligible unit is one that is within Engagement Range of an enemy unit and/or made a charge move in the same turn"

In my game today my opponent swore that this was an error and was going to be FAQ'd out.

Here's the scenario.



Can the Hive Tyrant pile in and fight RAW it's true but what do you guys think, was this intended?

Tyrant can pile in and attack since he charged. As intended.

Even if the unit had been completely destroyed, since the Tyrant has successfully completed his charge move he can still be selected to pile in and consolidate. By all means use the extra movement, if it helps.

Agreed, even if the entire unit was killed by the tyrannofex, the tyrant would still get a 3" pile in, and 3" consolidate, towards the nearest enemy unit, which is an optional move.

Why would this be a mistake? Being allowed to fight even if your not in engagement range so long as you charged that turn was also a thing in 8th.

This hasn't changed.

This is exactly the same as it worked in 8th.

one thing, you don't have to move directly towards the outrider, you just have to end the move closer to him
