FAQ: Multiple close combats and firefights
| [Content from Battles Book page 108.] |
Multiple firefights and close combats can get complex at times, so for the sake of sanity try to avoid them getting too confused by 'pairing off detachments' where possible.
Multiple Close Combats and Firefights
How this close combat is resolved depends on whether the units from Space Marine B are actually in contact with units from Ork A and B or not. If not the combatants are simply paired off so that A fights A, B fights B and C fights C. Otherwise A+B fight together on each side as a multiple combat but the two C's still have a separate scrap. If this were a firelight it would be best to resolve A+B+C vs A+B+C as one big firelight unless the C's were more than 15cm away from A+B.
