Fast Cavalry Formations

Warhammer Rulebook

Mounted models with a saving throw of no better than 5+ and a normal move rate of at least 6" are classed as **fast cavalry**. These nimble, lightly armoured cavalry can manoeuvre much more easily than slow, ponderous foot troops encumbered by weapons and armour. During their move fast cavalry are allowed to turn without incurring any penalties on their move distance. Fast cavalry are permitted to change their formation once during their movement by any number of ranks and with no penalty to their move. The manoeuvrability of fast cavalry is so great that they can even take advantage of their ability to turn and/or change formation whilst marching - unlike other troops who are unable to march and turn or change formation at the same time.

Fast Cavalry (Movement)

During the movement phase, or move phase, you get the opportunity to move your forces on the battlefield. As with the turn sequence, the things that you can do within the movement phase are performed in a strict sequence. An overview of each part of the sequence is given below and further rules governing movement are discussed in the section entitled Moving Troops. Declare Charges
If you want any of your troops to charge you must declare this at the very start of the
movement phase. Rally Fleeing Troops
If any of your troops are fleeing you may attempt to rally them. Compulsory Moves
Move troops that are subject to a compulsory movement rule. Move Chargers
Move charging troops and resolve other movement resulting from the charge. Remaining Moves
Move the rest of your troops.
