Hello,
I am a nurgle player, and look forward to use the Blightkrieg ability of the Glottkin with a pack of pusgoyle blightlords or beasts of nurgle with maximum effect. The way I read it, it seems doable to activate the ability to do a charge during enemy turn, while I am already piled-in with an enemy for example to reactivate "mortal wounds on charge" effects. Is is possible?
ere are my main arguments:
-The core rules state that "In your charge phase, you can pick a friendly unit that is within 12" of an enemy unit to attempt a charge. A unit cannot attempt a charge if it ran or retreated earlier in the turn or if it is within 3" of an enemy unit".
-The core rules also state that "Contradictory effects: If the effect of an ability contradicts a core rule, then the effecttakes precedence".
-The Nurgle "Blithkrieg ability" of the Glottkin warscroll states that "You can use this command ability at the end of the enemy movement phase if this unit is within 12" of an enemy unit. The command must be issued by this unit and must be received by another friendly MAGGOTKIN OF NURGLE unit that is within 12" of an enemy unit. This unit and then the unit that received the command can attempt a charge. "
It seems that the warscroll ability should allow me to "attempt a charge" while piled-in with the ability?
Also, since core rules specify <12" and >3" for charge and Blightkrieg rule specify again <12", why wouldn it specify >3" also again if it was not possible?
