The rule says:
Page 65 – Fangs of Sotek, Parting Shot
Change the rule to:
‘You can use this command ability when an enemy unit ends a charge move within 3" of a friendly Fangs of Sotek unit from the Skinks or Chameleon Skinks warscroll that is wholly within 18" of a friendly Fangs of Sotek Hero. If you do so, that unit can shoot. After you have resolved all of that unit’s shooting attacks, roll a dice. On a 4+, that unit must retreat but cannot run. A unit cannot benefit from this command ability more than once per phase.’
The question is. If I charge a unit of skins with idoneyh and my opponent uses the command ability, then he shoots and at 4+ he retreats. If i put only 1 miniature at 0,5" during the charge and the other ones at 3.1", and then he kills 1 miniature (i retire the closest one), can he still retrear with the skins unit even if he isn't in combat because I retired the miniature which charged? Because I can still pile in 3" after that.
The problem is about the correct secuence.
1 - Attack, retreat at 4+ and finally retire miniatures.
2 - Attack, retire miniatures and finally retreat at 4+ if there are still miniatures at 3" or less (can't retreat if you are not in combat).
What's the correct order, 1 or 2?
