Last game I used cavalry charges mainly to knock down models, and that's by charging then using shielding in Fight to double my chances.

Each cavalry had 4 dice to roll this way and no attacks, but the losing model gets knocked down and that's a mission acomplished for me with hopes to win priority the following turn.

I think this is legal, but I thought to double-check with you. So let me know what you think.

Aha, you double posted this. :P

Anyway, that actually is NOT legal, because mounted units can't utilize shielding. Says so in the rulebook, either under the rules for shielding or rules for cavalry.

Sorry. Good tactic/idea, but unfortunately you can't do it. :[

oh, it is really under shielding, my mistake! I have to quit doing this... :oops:
I used it once during last game till we make sure of it, so I don't think he'll ask for a rematch.. :lol:

Thanks and I deleted the duplicate post.

Glad I could help. ;]
I've made mistakes like that, too. I played a game where I had Citadel Guard with Longbows and spears, and didn't realize that you couldn't shoot and support in the same turn until a few weeks after the match.
Whoops. :P

We all make mistakes, it's forums like these which stop you from making them again :P

I have made many in the past and still do now.
