You do however have the option of not taking the difficult terrain test and thus making it not possible to move them as such.

Of course, because you always have the option of not assaulting!

This thread still?

It's simple. You measure to find the shortest distance between units. The charging model that is closest must move first. Don't move any yet. Knowing you must engage unengaged models in the charged unit if possible, measure distances between each charging model and the charged model(s) in cover. If any of them can be reached i.e. are within 6" then you have to try to reach them. That means have to move through difficult. That means the unit takes the test. If none of the charging models are within 6" of the models in difficult then you don't have to take the test. It's really that easy.

If none of the charging models are within 6" of the models in difficult or can reach an unengaged, alternate model that is not in difficult then you don't have to take the test.

It's really that easy.

You also have the option of not assaulting in the first place.
